After Leonardo DiCaprio and Harry Connick Jr. were among the top names rumored to be up for the role of Frank Sinatra, it now seems to be Jamie Foxx is the favorite to play Ol’ Blue Eyes. It was announced earlier this month that filmmaker Martin Scorsese will direct a biopic.

Foxx, who won an Oscar for his portrayal of Ray Charles in 2004's Ray, reportedly has studio bosses convinced he has the charisma and talent to tackle the role of Sinatra, who died in 1998.

An insider tells Britain's Daily Star, "Jamie would seem to be born to the role. Magnificent voice, convincing acting ability - like Frank himself - born the wrong side of the tracks, makes it big against all odds, has his brush with authority. The guy's a gift."
