David Oyelowo wants boxing movie role

Actor David Oyelowo has revealed he has 'very real ambitions' to star in a movie about a boxer.

The 40-year-old actor currently has a movie about fighter Sugar Ray Robinson in development, and though it is a role he'd love, he's still unsure whether he'll take it on or remain behind the camera.


David said, "I have very real ambitions of playing a boxer. Whether I get to play him - or, I should say, whether I choose to play him or end up just producing that one - that's something that remains to be seen."
