Really out chea
I'mma go see this in a few hours and give a review as an in-depth Pac fan who's seen every documentary on him. I don't really have alotta hope for it knowing how the production of this went and the shady stuff that was done.
Here's an article on it for those that may have missed it. I'm not big on conspiracy theory part at the end of this article but even still you gotta remember how hated the Black Panthers are by the FBI even in 2017.
Afeni's Non Approval Of Tupac Biopic May Have Lead To Her Death -
Here's another post
"The company making the biopic (Morgan Creek) sued Afeni Shakur for the movie rights to make the biopic about her son.
Afeni fired back with a $10 million cross-complaint saying that Morgan Creek, topper James Robinson and others tried to strong-arm a deal for Tupac movie rights, then sabotaged the project when Amaru Entertainment attempted to set it up elsewhere.
"Instead of negotiating in good faith with (Amaru), they sought to obtain the rights by concocting a non-existent 'agreement' and engaging in heavy-handed threats, coercion and intimidation to interfere with and ultimately destroy the film project," Amaru says.
What's more, just days after the Biggie Smalls biopic "Notorious" grossed more than $20 million in it's opening weekend, Morgan Creek execs allegedly arranged a conference call with an Amaru attorney to "accept" the counter-offer and began telling other studios and producers that Morgan Creek owned rights to the project.
"This was a sleazy and illegal ploy to coerce (Amaru) into a deal," says the cross-complaint, which demands millions in damages for derailing talks with potential studios and producers.
Also named in the cross-complaint are Morgan Creek legal executive Don Hardison and consultant LT Hutton.
If you recall at the end of 2015 Morgan Creek rushed in to production on the biopic, why? Because the Tupac music rights would be reverted back to Afeni Shakur if the biopic was not in production by the end of 2015, meaning they would have no Tupac music to use in the biopic."
