Dennis Rodman will soon be entitled to his own film based mainly on his affection for the city of Las Vegas. And it is therefore Jonathan Majors who will play the role of The Worm.
The legend surrounding the 1998 Bulls continues to rage, even 25 years later. After the series The Last Dance retracing Michael Jordan’s journey from his draft to The Final Shot, it is the turn of his sidekick Dennis Rodman to be the main character of the story. This time it will be on the occasion of a feature film announced for several months now: “48 Hours in Vegas”.
And we now know – a little – more about this film: Jonathan Majorsbest known for his role in Creed III, should embody Rodman. The actor thus revealed the news in an interview given au micro de AP Entertainment. He specifies his affection for this role and the learning he will have to do to put himself in the shoes of one of the most crazy players in history.

Regarding the story, if some sources think that the film will be based on the june road tripduring which Dennis Rodman was absent in full series against the Jazz, other media, including ESPN, believe that the story will tell the disappearance of the strong winger in January of the same year. In both cases, the story is pretty much the same : The Worm who lays off right in the middle of the Taurus dynamic, and watched closely by Michael Jordan.
By the way, Dennis Rodman himself has been asked to produce part of the film, but no news from Kim Jong Un’s best friend about it. There’s still plenty of time before the movie hits the big screen, as the release date hasn’t been announced yet, and filming doesn’t seem to have started either.
