Jamie Foxx Frank Sinatra Movie – Oscar-winning actor Jamie Foxx has thrown his name in the mix to play in the upcoming biopic based on the life of Frank Sinatra.Foxx is up against Justin Timberlake, Harry Connick Jr., and Leo DiCaprio for the lead role.Industry insiders believe Foxx was “born to play Sinatra” and told The Daily Express:
“Cool is color-blind. Jamie would seem to be born to the role.” “Magnificent singing voice, totally convincing acting ability, like Frank himself, born the wrong side of the tracks, rags to riches, makes it big against the odds, has his brushes with authority. The guy’s a gift.”
What do you think?
well Jamie is one of my favorites he soo sexy and talented, but Sinatra I know he could do it, but he’ s jus the “opposite”..but yea, we in 2009 now, so uh we got a black prezident I guess now we could make Sinatra black! dat’s wha sup, Im wit it fa sho dat!!!..Jamie goin rep it,..the only way he wouldnt get tha part cuz he black but oh well…things changed now, and in tha making of a change..by Obama..
jamies’ a talented dude but in think he would be better off playing someone like
sammie davis jr. cause i think for the Sinatra film to be a believeable bio the character should be white.
theres no doubt here that jamie foxx is a talented actor and singer.. the ray charles film showed that especially.. but like we’ve seen with the likes of jouquin pheonix in Walk The Line some actors we taught couldn’t sing, can sing.. DiCaprio suits this role down to the ground he’s the closest thing to Sinatra actor like we can get and if he opens up like pheonix did with the Johnny Cash voice this will be a great film.
Greetings:
It is a new day and time and Jamie Foxx doing this role. Would be proof of this. He would do beautiful in this role. No matter what role he plays he always does with such a passion. Good Luck Jamie,forget about the rest live for today.
God Bless
no way. he is nothing like frant sinatra, and therefore should not be portraying frank sinatra. stick to playing sammy davis jr.
Ummm, no! What is so cool about Jamie Foxx? Now if the role is a Sinatra inspired role, then maybe he would do well; otherwise, just leave it alone, why not play Sammy Davis Jr. How would he like it if someone like Paul Walker played him in a biopic?
Just when you think you heard everything////////////You have to be kidding me ……..this is a joke right? Maybe sammy but in no way play ole Blue eys.
Only 2 guys that can play Frank is Michael Buble or Harry Connick jr….And Harry would be my first choice.

i wonder what some racists will think about SInatra being played by a black man. if anybody could pull that off it would be jamie..but justin timberlake would be good too hes another triple threat..harry connick is fairly decent singer and pretty good actor too..
I thought Jamie may play sammie in this movie one of the pieces of the rat pack..(sammie davis, dean martin, frank sinatra)
yessss!! great make up will make this one of the best movies of the year. Can someone say OSCAR!! yes, I wish he would do it.
I know Jamie could do it, but these opposite people would blow their wigs off! You go Jamie if you get the part play the hack out of it. I know who will be at the movies in line to see you. ME !!!!!! Holla!
NO NO NO!!!
a black guys as frank!!!??
come on now, that just is not right. And im not trying to be racist because
I AM BLACK, and i also love sinatra with a passion. but come on now jaimie dont be stupid, this just wont work!
Well the only thing that will stick out in the movie is Jamie Foxx unless they make him look white. Other than that Jammie Foxx is perfect!
Harry Connick Jr. will be the best choice in the role for Frank. Leo is also a good choice except for the singing part of it. Jaime Fox won’t be playing Frank.. he’d be playing Sammie Davis Jr. Come on people lets get it right.
JUST DO THE DAM THANG MR. FOXX ! A bit of makeup and we will be unsure if “old blue eyes” , has gone totally brown. I dare the powers that be , to select the best talent for this Sinatra movie. Jamie Foxx will indeed get this role hands down and make us all proud he did.Mr. Foxx is so skilled in his chosen craft(s) that Mr.Sinatra himself will be smiling down from heaven tipping his martini glass. Talent hasn’t a color or does it?
Harry Connick Jr. will be the best man to play Sinatra, Jamie don’t have the personalty or the chops.
JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE OR JAMES FRANCO…………..NO LEO, NO JOHNNY……JACK
