Producers Of Tupac Film Eying Actors — Who do you think should star?

[BigRon]

I really cant think of one actor in particular but I came up with a list of actors that might be good choices:

Omar Epps
Bokeem Woodbine
Wood Harris (The Wire)
Idris Elba (The Wire)
Tyrese

 

[Quasimodo]

i'd like to see tyrese in this film

 

[MATW95]

No big names, that would just fuck it up completely. I'm hoping to see a newcomer take the role so that the focus of the movie isn't taken away with Wesley Snipes sptting Hit Em Up.

we don't know this script has anything to do with pac's life. it's a script, not a biography. as far as we're concerned, there are no similarities between the main character in the script and tupac.

a big star name would be cool cause i'd like to see this at the movies. i don't want denzel nor will smith. the story is about a drug kingpin, not an fbi detective or a boxer lol.

Totally agree with Tretch or Tyrese ... Probably the only two actors I can think of that carry the hard edge and intelligence like pac while still having a street appeal. Plus anyone whos seen Babyboy always assosiates the mural of 2pac on the wall to Tyrece and I could of seen Pac Playing that exact role if he was alive. Tretch pretty much admits he aint the greatest actor but he carries the legacy with em so aleast he has a sense of what the role really means & would carry the passion the role deserves.

 

[FATAL N FELONY]

I would like to see Larenz Tate try out for the role. Dead Presidents was a good movie.

 

[Helena]

i thought the film would be have 2pac in it! i don't know why i thought that, but if that was the case, am i the only one who thinks wesley snipes resembles 2pac more then any of the other above mentioned names?
anyway, i think Tyrese.

 

[KO]

Aaaahahhh I dont like Tyrese as an actor, i think his acting is wooden...I cant really think who id like to see in it, ill have to come back to this one, P\z

i've only seen treach in one movie but i gotta admit he wasn't bad at all. i in fact didn't have one complaint when the movie was done. at that, i considered the two hours i had just spent watching it well worth my while. that's a nice suggestion with a pretty good reason behind it, and i agree. i think treach could be awesome in this movie.

 

[Snowman]

Mekki Pheiffer

 

[LAZARU$]

nate dogg,game,or coco beware

 

[Khaled]

omar epps

 

[Pittsey]

Jamie Foxx or Mekki Pheiffer

 

[South_African]

i think omar epps should star in it, becuz he did do a movie with him, i dont wanna see anyone that didnt know him personally in the film, that defeats the whole purpose of the movie, dont fuck it up like the last 2 albums they did, with these fake ass rappers, 50 and g unit i hope are not in the movie!!! just an opinion, dont hate!!! peace

 

[makaveli_411]

It's a toss up between Omar Epps and Treach who also seems like the one up for this role.

Peace

Samuel L Jackson as the mentor , can't imagine anybody better for it ...
will smith in there would be nice too , but not as mentor
