(Photo by Willy Sanjuan/Invision/AP, File)LOS ANGELES โ Hulu announced it has ordered a limited series dramatizing the life of boxing great Mike Tyson, who quickly slammed the production as โcultural misappropriation.โIn a press release Thursday, Hulu said โIron Mikeโ will explore โthe wild, tragic and controversial life and careerโ of a polarizing athlete.
