Morgan Creek Productions has recently received the green light to film a biopic of the rapper’s brilliant yet tumultuous life. Last year, the project was postponed due to litigation involving the rapper’s mother and former Black Panther Party member, Afeni Shakur. The film is set to begin production in September.
The untitled project will be directed by Antoine Faqua. Faqua is responsible for directing the 2001 award-winning smash, Training Day, which starred Denzel Washington and earned the veteran actor an Oscar for his leading role. Faqua has also directed many music videos, including Prince’s “The Most Beautiful Girl in the World” and Coolio’s “Gangsta’s Paradise.”
Fans and viewers alike will be interested in comparing the differences between Tupac’s biopic to that of his friend-turned-rival, slain rapper, Christopher “The Notorious B.I.G.” Williams’ hugely successful 2009 biopic, Notorious.
