In 2014, Morgan Freeman signed on to star in the movie adaptation of Beautiful Jim Key, the story of what famous animal, who wowed audiences in the early 20th century?

Jim Key was a huge star in the early 20th century, and his performances were seen by nearly 10 million people. That's in no small part due to the fact that his promoters advertised the horse as being able to read and write, do arithmetic, and even "cite Bible passages". Jim Key the horse performed in front of thousands of people "from Atlantic City to Chicago".
