Apparently Jake Lamatta is getting this film up and going, although MGM is suing him and trying to stop filming. The cast seems pretty decent with stars like Joe Mantegna and Paul Sorvino and William Forsythe playing Old Jake Lamatta (I think that's spot on casting to be honest).

What do you guys think? It obviously won't be as good as the original but hey it's a boxing movie and perhaps it will be decent.
funny how they're trying to sue the guy for trying to get another movie done about HIS OWN FRIGGIN LIFEQuote:

Wow is that true? I loved Creedence. One of the best ever bands to come from your side of the atlantic. Fortunate son is one of the best songs ever too!Quote:

Will it be edited by Thelma Schoonmaker, directed by Scorsese, have a screenplay co-written by Paul Schrader and star Robert de Niro?
