Mike Tyson wants to become full-time actor

Los Angeles: Boxing legend Mike Tyson hopes his cameo in ‘The Hangover’ sequel might just help him in making acting his full-time career.

Tyson has also enjoyed small parts in TV shows such as ‘Entourage’ and ‘Brothers’. "Yes. I`m pursuing an acting career," a website quoted him as telling TV newsman Larry King in an interview. "I`ve got a lot of reviews and a lot of people gave me accolades and I`m just very grateful... I could have been going in a different direction right now. And I`m just pretty grateful." IANS
