Snoop Dogg Joins Storied List Of Famous Rapper Biopics

Snoop Dogg‘s life story will quickly be everyone’s home entertainment on the cinema!!!

Tha Doggfather revealed Wednesday his biopic would mark the first production for his newly-minted Death Row Films with famous director Allen Hughes of Hughes Brothers’ popularity set to direct.

“Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” co-writer Joe Cole will pen the script and Snoop will produce the function flick with Hughes and his Death Row Films partner Sara Ramaker.

From his time as a Crip-strolling, Long Beach shorty down to his globally-massive rap profession, Snoop’s film might be simply as action-packed as fan-favorite movies “Menace II Society” and “The Book of Eli” … which Hughes co-directed.

Rappers have actually captivated audiences at theaters for several years through their bios — even posthumously.

The late, fantastic Biggie Smalls had his “Notorious” function launched in 2009 … over a years after he was eliminated and Tupac‘s “All Eyez on Me” dropped in 2017, over twenty years after his murder.

The 9-man Wu-Tang Clan took their story to the next level … taking a tv series now on its 3rd season that even utilizes rap artists Joey Bada$$ and Dave East as cast members.

And as far as honors go, the N.W.A biopic “Straight Outta Compton” narrated the lives of Dr. Dre, Ice Cube and the rest of the posse and notoriously made an Academy Award election for Best Original Screenplay … and Eminem ended up being the very first rapper to ever win an Oscar thanks to his “8 Mile” soundtrack classic “Lose Yourself.”
