The late Tupac Shakur, the subject of the forthcoming biopic All Eyez on Me, would have turned 45 on Thursday. To celebrate his life and legacy, the team behind the long-awaited production have finally unveiled the first teaser for the film via Big Boy's Neighborhood. It shows Demetrius Shipp Jr. embodying the legendary rapper and activist like some would have never thought possible.
The film, originally titled Tupac, battled a history of false starts before finally finding the cast and crew it needed to pull off one of the most highly anticipated stories in music history. Shipp is joined by Jamal Woolard, reprising his role as Notorious B.I.G. after first playing the late icon in the 2009 biopic Notorious.
