This bit of news is off the hizzle fo shizzle, dizzle! A Snoop Dogg biopic is in development with Menace II Society director Allen Hughes at the helm.
A Snoop Dogg biopic is currently in development with Menace II Society director Allen Hughes. The iconic Long Beach-based rapper originally rose to stardom after being featured on Dr. Dre's 1992 single "Deep Cover" as well as his follow-up album The Chronic. Since then, Snoop has released 20 albums and earned 17 Grammy nominations.
Per Deadline, a biopic about his life is currently in development with a screenplay by Black Panther and Wakanda Forever screenwriter Joe Robert Cole and Hughes attached to direct. The project, which will be the first film from his production company Death Row Pictures, will be a rap musical featuring tracks from his extensive songbook. Snoop, Hughes, and Sara Ramaker will be producing.Who Could Play Snoop Dogg? The pedigree of the folks behind the camera on this biopic is beyond doubt.
However, the question remains as to who is the best option to actually play Snoop Dogg in the film. One of the most prominent options is likely LaKeith Stanfield, who is known for his roles in Jordan Peele's 2017 horror film Get Out and the Donald Glover FX series Atlanta. Stanfield, who was nominated for an Oscar for his performance opposite Daniel Kaluuya in 2021's Judas and the Black Messiah, has already played Snoop Dogg in the N.W.A. biopic Straight Outta Compton.
One other option for the role could also be Snoop Dogg himself. While it would be an offbeat move for the 51-year-old to play a younger version of himself, it would live up to the quirky sense of humor he has shown off in his recent artistic choices, including appearing on the cooking show Martha & Snoop's Potluck Dinner Party alongside Martha Stewart.
