It’s a project that’s long been in development (at least 7 years) – first with Anthony Mackie attached to star, but he eventually exited, telling us when we interviewed him 2 years ago, while he was on "Pain & Gain" press junket duties: "I’m not sure what’s going on with ‘Bolden.’ It’s been 6 years, so I’ve decided I was finished."
I can’t blame him for that. But he’s certainly not desperate for work, given how busy he’s been over the years – although that leading man role in a major Hollywood motion picture all his own (something that "Bolden!" may have provided), continues to elude him.
Mackie was eventually replaced last year, by the British actor…
