Jett Howard to star as Carmelo Anthony in upcoming LeBron James biopic
Whoa NIL-EE!!
I'd be OK with Jett also leading us to an NCAA title his freshman year like Anthony did at Syracuse.
I was going to post something like that.
Yes, here's hoping life imitates art.
Good for him. I will NOT be watching a biopic that will be produced by the person making it. Ever see that Chappelle show skit about making a movie about yourself?
Don't know about the movie, but the book "Shooting Stars" it's based on is really more about the four guys he played HS ball with. Might be worth a watch when it comes out.
Jokes and jokes and jokes and jokes and jokes
Spaghetti! Spaghetti! Spaghetti! Spaghetti!
Cool. What a good opportunity for him.
Title...hmmm.
Fuck Ohio, I Left TWICE: The LeBron James Story.
Yes. Let's go with that one.
It’s so crazy to say as a devout Wolverine. Lebron James is my favorite basketball player in the league and my second favorite of all time behind Zeke. Now it’s time for me to duck LOL.
Seriously. Obviously both great athletes with super annoying playing styles and even less respectable personalities.
You can have your opinions about Lebron, but I don't think he's a bad guy.
Let's put it this way: building a school for at-risk kids in Akron and providing them with free tuition to Akron University (provided they meet certain academic standards, I'm sure) makes you at least a halfway decent person. There are plenty of other high profile athletes out there who do far less with their community than he does, if they do anything at all.
I didn't see anything about him being a bad guy. He can do a lot of good and still have a super annoying personality, which I agree with. Recently saw a story about how he tried to get Michelle Beadle fired from ESPN because she criticized The Decision on air. Producing a biopic about himself seems to fall right in line with that behavior. As does the decision fiasco itself. There are plenty of philanthropic douches out there.
Would this have been allowed in the pre NIL days? Or he is just a recruit can do anything he wants.
LeBron producing a biopic about himself before he has even retired is classic. LeBron loves him some LeBron.
Was going to hop on here to say they look nothing alike, but then I clicked the link and it's not actually that bad of a likeness. Will be a bit weird in two years if Jett is in the NBA playing against Anthony after pretending to be him though.
Is this a Bron production? I just saw a Bron production called The Survivor. Barry Levinson directed a biographical drama on HBO which stared Ben Foster as boxer Harry Haft, who bent but not broken looks to carry on after horrific and mind blowing fighting to survive in WWII concentration camps and winds up in the US and eventually fights Rocky Marciano. Ben Foster's performance is outstanding.
