In honor of what would’ve been his 45th birthday today, the trailer for the Tupac biopic titled “All Eyez On Me” has been released. The long overdue is set to hit theaters November 11, 2016 and is directed by legendary music video director, Benny Boom. It seems John Singleton’s version of the Tupac biopic has been nipped in the bud. The lead actor for that film, Marcc Rose, was able to star as Tupac in the NWA biopic, “Straight Outta Compton“.
