Well, Well, Well...


It's a definate GO for the NOTORIOUS B.I.G. biopic.

After a nationwide casting search, the lead role will go to Brooklyn's own notorious ghostwriter/rapper Gravy aka: Jamal Crawford (shout out to the East 17th crew-LOL!)

The biopic Notorious, based on the life of rapper Christopher ‘Notorious B.I.G.’ Wallace, who was gunned down in 1997, will also star Angela Bassett, who will play Biggie’s mom, Voletta Wallace; Anthony Mackie as Tupac Shakur; and Derek Luke as Sean “Diddy” Combs. George Tillman Jr. will direct the film, which begins shooting March 24 in New York City.

SMH HARD at this photo, because I haven't seen Gravy in years! I wonder how long he was prepping for the role with this weight gain. [Cause that shit is scary!]

But Congrats anyways!
