Don Cheadle making Miles Ahead film

I wasn't aware of this flick.  I just stumbled upon it now.  It looks like it's Don Cheadle's baby.  He is playing Miles Davis as well as writing and directing Miles Ahead 

Cool.

I'm a huge Don Cheadle fan. I would almost pay to watch him sit and read the phone book. I can't think of anyone else I would rather see playing Miles.

I loved the film The Guard.  He and Brendan Gleeson  were great together.

Cheadle was brilliant in Boogie Nights, Traffic, Hotel Rwanda, Devil In A Blue Dress, and, actually, anything else I can remember seeing him in. He even managed to make NFL promos dramatic. I recently also noticed he was in the late 80s gang movie Colors, and he was just as good in that, even though he barely had any dialogue.

From the topic, I thought for a minute there that he was making a film about YOU;D

David Lynch's Lost Highway had a segment about an auto mechanic that reminded me of me in some respects.  Discounting the violence that is.  :)
