In development from DreamWorks for some time, a proposed biopic of Martin Luther King, Jr. appears to be gaining some serious traction today as reports that Jamie Foxx (Django Unchained, Ray, Collateral, Ali) is in talks to headline with Oliver Stone (Alexander, Natural Born Killers, JFK, The Doors, Born On The Fourth Of July, Platoon) tentatively planning to direct. Jamie Fox and Oliver Stone previously teamed for Any Given Sunday in 1999.




Release Date: TBA (To Be Announced)

DreamWorks has acquired the life rights to Martin Luther King, Jr. and is bringing a biopic on the slain civil rights leader to the big screen. King, who was assassinated in 1968 in Memphis at the age of 39, copyrighted his speeches, books and famous works during his lifetime. The DreamWorks project marks the first film to be authorized by King's estate and gives the producers the right to utilize King's intellectual property -- including his famous "I Have a Dream" speech delivered during the 1963 March on Washington -- to create the definitive portrait of his life.
