How Much to Fight Tyson?

If you’re a guy, you’ve probably at some point asked or been asked, “How much would it take for you to get into the ring with MIKE TYSON?”

Soon we may know.

Believe it or not, producers are hoping to create a reality series in which an everyday guy would train and then fight former heavyweight champion MIKE TYSON! What’s even crazier, TYSON has expressed interest in the show as well!

Stu Schreiberg, of Triage Entertainment [which put on the “Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show” special last year], is the creative genius behind this idea. Hmmm… I wonder how much it would take to get Stu to climb into the ring?

Sly and Tom Cruise in “Death Race 3000”?

Cinescape.com’s Insider News and Rumors‘ column reports today that TOM CRUISE continues to move forward with his Death Race 3000 project. The report states that TOM CRUISE will not only produce but probably star in Death Race 3000 as well. The film is set to be directed by PAUL ANDERSON (Soldier, Event Horizon) from a script by JONATHON LAWTON (Pretty Woman, Under Siege).

According to the post LAWTON…

“…would really like to get SYLVESTER STALLONE to come back to reprise his role as Machine-Gun Joe Viterbo” from the original Death Race 2000.  LAWTON is quoted as saying, “Machine-Gun Joe is definitely part of the story. It would be a great casting decision.”

One would have thought that Death Race 2000 would be one of the least likely movies from SLY‘s filmography to get a sequel… but, and this is a BIG but, if TOM CRUISE does decide to produce and star in DR3000, then I’d love to see SLY jump on board!
