Ice Cube Still Planning NWA Biopic

John Singleton states he might directIt's well more than a year since Ice Cube introduced he was planning to make a biopic of his erstwhile NWA crew. Meanwhile he's switched out for romantic drama New Year's Eve and performed the Frank McRae angry captain role in 21 Jump Street. But Cube has ongoing to build up Straight Out of Compton, and today John Singleton has revealed he's in foretells direct. This is an apparent match of fabric along with a director who formerly labored with Cube around the epochal Boyz N the Hood. Since that time the kind of Shaft, Four Siblings and a pair of Fast 2 Furious have stored him afloat, and he's lately completed the Rachelle Lefervre vehicle Abduction, in the hot Black List script by Shawn Christensen. His Compton participation is not occur stone - I can not talk too prematurely about this, he told The Playlist - but he is doing state that the script is actually, great, so we are foreseeing it. He adds that New Line desires to allow it to be. Last we heard, that script was at the disposal of World Trade Center author Andrea Berloff, however it appears since to possess acquired S Leigh Savidge and Alan Wenkus, each of whom will also be working together on the new Dolemite movie. Savidge designed a documentary concerning the Dying Row label, the publish-NWA home of Dr Dre, in 2001. Matt Alvarez, Cube's creating cohort from the kind of Barbershop and therefore are We There Yet?, can also be involved. Cube had an acrimonious split from NWA before going after his solo career (he went platinum, bitch, but he did not need to become unattainable), and although he's been reconciled together with his former bandmates because the dying of Easy E, a Cube-controlled Straight Out of Compton still appears one-on the sides. Nevertheless, it's beginning, so there is no reason to suspect that Dre, DJ Yella and MC Ren will not possess some kind of participation somewhere down the road. Additionally, there are the question of casting: any recommendations for Cube like a teen, with some gold along with a pager?
