Oscar winner Forest Whitaker may have found the role that will earn him a second Oscar. The Wrap reports that the “Last King of Scotland” actor is circling “Memphis,” a biopic about Martin Luther King, Jr. The movie will be directed by Paul Greengrass in a handheld “docu-style,” similar to how he shot “United 93.” “Memphis” focuses on MLK’s final days, struggling to balance his personal life with the Civil Rights movement.
