It is being reported the Oscar nominee Terrence Howard is a very busy man of late. He is currently being courted by multiple different filmmakers to portray various historical icons. The first is a Spike Lee joint where Howard would play boxer Joe Louis, in the story of Louis’ life. And yet the two others are biopics depicting the life of super-freak Rick James and Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall. As the story reports:

He’ll play a police officer helping (and loving) a grieving, revengeful Jodie Foster in “The Brave One.” He’ll portray an inspirational coach in the true-life “PDR” and a social worker in the ensemble drama “August Rush.” He has also been talking to the makers of three different biopics - on boxer Joe Louis, singer Rick James and Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall.

It seems as if Mr. Howard is a very busy man. And rightfully so. Did you see his performance in Hustle & Flow?
