It seems like over the last couple of years, biopics have become the new thing. Everyone from Ray Charles, to Johnny Cash, to Eminem have one. Most recently, The Notorious BIG biopic was released to critical acclaim, further opening the door for more Hip Hop biopics. There has been a lot of fan talk since Notorious hit theaters. People want more.
Fans won't have to wait much longer for an NWA biopic however. The movie, titled Straight Outta Compton, has recently been green lit by New Line Cinema. The urban drama will chronicle the rise and fall of the group. Following them from humble beginnings, to their fiery breakup in the early 90's, and ending with Eazy-E tragically dying of AIDS.
The film's producers, which include Ice Cube, Dr. Dre, and Tomica Wright (Eazy-E's widow), and Circle of Confusion entertainment, are now actively searching for a director along the lines of Curtis Hanson (8 Mile).
