      Cheadle gets my vote. That's without even seeing the movie!
      August 27, 2010 at 9:02am
    • Thom Walker Kris - No kidding a Jaco movie would be amazing...but probably only to us bassists. Think about the technique the actor would have to develop to mimic his playing. As for the playing, I just don't know who would be my favorite, right now I am leaning towards Alain Caron or Richard Bona. But, there are so many other options. I am just immersed in those 2 right now.

    • Ben Wiley Great....Now what is it you 132 actually LIKE? Do peole have to do ANYTHING these days to elicit an, "I LIKE it!" LOL.
      August 27, 2010 at 9:52am
    • Ben Wiley Hey, really, though, has someone finally seen the potential of a Miles movie starring Cheadle? I said that a couple YEARS ago, but I also thought Denzel would make a great Trane (just check out the cover of "Africa Brass"!).

    • Andrew Morton do any of Miles' kids play jazz?
      August 27, 2010 at 10:00am
    • Thom Walker Ben - I agree with Denzel and Trane. The only thing is since he played a trumpet player in Mo' Better Blues, people may have that image of him. But, I do wonder who is going to play Trane in the Miles biopic.

      August 27, 2010 at 1:33pm
    • Ben Wiley Ooh...Finally actually read everyone's comment's - COOL! YEAH! I'm excited - Cheadle as Miles! So does anyone know what period this'll be in? Hey! Crispin Glover as Bill Evans! Ooh! Is this an epic biographical or does it center on, say, his Blue Period ("Kind of", "Sketches", "Porgy & Bess" "Milestones" -- better yet '65-'68??! Ooh! Terrance Howard as Philly Joe Jones!

      Okay, so I her ya on Denzel having played the fictional Bleek Gilliam in Mo Betta, but the mark of an actor is to step outside of that role - and Coltrane was FAR from a Bleek-type character. Denzel would have to meet the challenge of being... very...low-key. What bugs the hell out of me is that Don Cheadle ix very vague about the actual nature of this project, thought the script has been re-worked and he'll be directing it. See More
      August 27, 2010 at 2:26pm
    • Ben Wiley And I really hope - and I think Sony (who owns it now) might finance part of it were this the case - that the script centers on the years from Milestones through to Bitches Brew, because this was that HUGE period when created some of the most sublime and influential music in the history of jazz.
      August 27, 2010 at 2:30pm
    • Ben Wiley How to distill such a glorious life into two hours??? I had thought the "Kind of Blue" period would really be great for financing because the re-released special edition of that album just came out last year, with the blue vinyl version included, etc. Plus, that album was THE modal masterpiece - it would also show his SCOPE, as the work with Gil Evans was really amazing and influenced his ideas about "Blue".
      August 27, 2010 at 2:33pm
    • Ben Wiley
      Imagine the dramatic effect it'll have to center the movie around the MUSIC, since Miles only cared about that - the brooding nature of "Concerto de Arjuanez", the suave shuffling shimmering arrangement and smoky tone of "Summertime", the r...ainy day rarity that is "Blue in Green". And the appearance within Miles' circle of jazzmen who would all go on to be world-renowned leaders in their own right during that glorious 10-15 year period!See More

    • Anthony L. Adams
      ‎@Jamell: I was just thinking the same thing. Perhaps it’s just the kind of small, yet powerful movie role Denzel can get excited about. :)

      Did you know that "Mo’ Better Blues" was originally titled "A Love Supreme?" Alice Coltrane read ...the script and thought there was too much profanity in the film, and she preferred that Spike not use that title. However, she still let him use the song, (obviously). I thought the recording was much more important than the title. :)See More
