Former undisputed heavyweight champion Mike Tyson has made appearances in multiple movies and TV shows.

In 1999, 'Iron' Mike starred in a movie called Black and White alongside Golden Globe Award nominee Brooke Shields. Directed by James Toback, the drama is based on Harlem's hip-hop culture in the late 1990s. Mike Tyson plays a fictionalized version of himself.

The movie features a bizarre scene where Mike Tyson's character gets involved in a physical scuffle with Robert Downey Jr's character 'Terry Donager'. Donager tries to rile Tyson, and in retaliation, Tyson starts hitting Donager and begins hurling homophobic slurs at the character. Subsequently, Brooke Shields' character, Sam Donager, intervenes to stop the altercation. Check out the scene below:
