In the actual time of Duke’s peak, absolutely. Hell, with a clever writer and director team, I would support a low-budget tongue-in-cheek flick.
But Duke is heavily a product of the times. I just can’t see a full take that wouldn’t rip out what makes him iconic, but equally terrible, as a character.

You just gave all the reasons they would make a movie of him.
A nasty baddie that the audience can hate? ✅
Macho main character? ✅
One liners that can be sprinkled throughout the movie to give the audience goose bumps when uttered? ✅
Hot chicks in trouble? ✅
This is already a movie that a game would normally be made from.
