lol some are you are crazy... It seems this movie isn't about Pac himself so why should the actor look like 2pac ?

It is only said that Pac made the main role for him :)

Mekhi phiffer, omer epps would be good actors imo or at least someone who is already confirmed, not a nobody :)

Who is the guy who played 2pac in plays a couple years ago? I've heard he did a really good job.

tyrese wa sgood in Four Brothers.

Mentor-Larry Fishburne, Wesley Snipes, Ice-T, Samuel L. Jackson, Ice Cube, Cuba Gooding Jnr, Isaac Hayes, CHARLIE MURPHY!!! lol

Nas, Dmx, Method Man all did well in Belly! Bloodclaaat!

Tyrese, Treach, Napoleon, RZA, Lorenz Tate, Marlon Wayans (Above The Rim) Shawn-Damon & Keenan too.
Jamie Foxx, Tommy Davidson, Bill Bellamy, Anthony Anderson, Mekhi Phifer

Pac was friends with Madonna & Mickey Rourke maybe they could get in there somewhere.

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.

There we go, I misunderstood what was up. I was thinking it was about his life and they were looking for somebody to be him. But yea, if it has nothing to do with his life, then the big name actor may help carry the movie and help it score big at the box office.

Mekhi Phifer would probably be perfect. Ludacris is a good choice too.

Will Smith would be pretty good, but the role of a drug kingpin might be too bad for him. I don't think he would do it. If he took the risk, I'm sure it would be cool though.

Whatever the case, I just hope it's acted well and not watered-down to a cheesy, stereotypical movie. I doubt that's what it is to begin with (I think Pac would be smarter at writing than that), and I hope that it doesn't turn out to be that. But do remember that some of his music has become watered-down to a cheesy, stereotypical sound (i.e. Jazze Pha and Eminem, not to mention JAZZE PHA)...

Treach gotta get a part there somewhere. Other Musician actors I would like to see:

Will Smith
Ice Cube (small part)
Tyrese
Ludacris

Then some actors would be:

Mekhi Phifer
Omar Epps
Denzel Washinton
Samuel L Jackson
There are loads man!

I think Larenz Tate should play Pac's role, and it would be cool to see Lawrence Fishburn play the mentor

Mickey Rourke could play a dirty cop (if there is one)

Treach should have a small role somewhere, Omar Epps should at least have a cameo

IMO I think the script should of been handed to John Singleton
