Following in the footsteps of Eminem and 50 Cent, T.I. is planning to bring his life to the big screen in an upcoming biopic.

T.I., aka Clifford Harris, will star in the movie and is presently supervising the flick's development. T.I. believes that the picture will be a more realistic depiction of ghetto life than Eminem's 8 Mile. Similar to 8 Mile and 50 Cent's Get Rich or Die Trying, T.I.'s project will loosely be based on his life.

"I think it'll be more dramatic than [8 Mile] and more action-packed," T.I. stated. "My trouble was a little more extreme; getting in shootouts, going to jail, selling dope. Em had domestic problems; I had ghetto problems."
