Actor Amin Joseph, known for his role in Snowfall, has been confirmed to appear in an upcoming series titled “The Greatest,” which is centered around the life of boxing legend Muhammad Ali. This limited series can be streamed on Amazon’s Prime Video platform.
In line with recent updates, I’m thrilled to share that I’ll be joining forces with Michael B. Jordan as we oversee a captivating new project. Together with the talented showrunner, Ben Watkins, we’re set to guide this production as executive producers. It’s an exciting venture, and I can’t wait to dive in!
As a devoted admirer, I eagerly anticipate that “The Greatest” will delve into more than just Ali’s sports career; it will highlight pivotal instances in the legendary figure’s life and boxing journey, drawing from thoroughly documented events.
For enthusiasts of the series, the limited run will also delve into events happening beyond the limelight.
In this production, Jaalen Best will take on the main character, while Joseph is set to portray Sonny Liston, a formidable heavyweight champion and rival of Muhammad Ali. For those unfamiliar, Liston earned the nickname “The Bear” and was thought invincible until 1964, when he lost his title in an unexpected match against the underdog, Muhammad Ali, who was then known as Cassius Clay.
In the earlier announcement about the cast, it was mentioned that Omari Hardwick is set to portray Cassius “Cash” Clay Sr., who is Ali’s father, while Dana Gourrier has been chosen for the role of his mother, Odessa “Bird” Clay.
Michael B. Jordan’s production company, Outlier Society, has secured an overall deal with Amazon MGM Studios for the development of The Greatest, together with Watkins’ Blue Monday Productions, Authentic Studios, Roc Nation, Polygram Entertainment (a partner of Universal Music Group), and Grace: A Storytelling Company. In simpler terms, these companies have teamed up with Michael B. Jordan’s production company to collaborate on various projects, one of which is The Greatest, under the umbrella of Amazon MGM Studios.
Currently, Amin Joseph is featured in the Sony comedy “One of Those Days,” sharing screen time with Keke Palmer and SZA. So far, his most notable performance has been as the main character, Jerome Saint, in the FX series “Snowfall.
