From the perspective of his one-man-show, Mike Tyson asks the question ‘Who am I?’ as he reflects on his childhood in Brownsville, New York, where he already has 37 arrests on his record by the time he is just 13.
Från skaparen/manusförfattaren Steven Rogers och teamet som låg bakom I, Tonya, och showrunnern Karin Gist, exekutiv producent på Our Kind of People, kommer MIKE som utforskar Mike Tysons dynamiska och kontroversiella livshistoria. Serien i 8 avsnitt berättar om tumultartade upp- och nedgångar i Tysons boxningskarriär och privatliv – från att ha varit en älskad global idrottare till paria och tillbaka igen. Kameran fokuserar på Mike Tyson och undersöker klasskillnader och rasfrågan i USA, berömmelse och medias makt, kvinnohat, rikedomsfördelningen, löftet om den amerikanska drömmen och till slut vår egen roll i skapandet av Mikes historia. Även om den här historien är inspirerad av faktiska händelser, har vissa karaktärer, incidenter, platser och viss dialog dramatiserats.
