Since rumors of a Tupac biopic were confirmed in fall of 2013, there have been no trailers but constant rumors surrounding its production have been present.
Well rumors have finally come to a head with the film’s director, John Singleton, stepping down from the project. We all know John from directing the classic movie BoyZ N The Hood. According to published reports, a source close to the project stated that “There are major creative differences” between Singleton and Morgan Creek. “Honestly, Morgan Creek can make a sub-par Tupac movie and move on. If John Singleton makes a bad Tupac movie? There’s no more Singleton.”
Carl Franklin, who directed Out of Time and Devil In a Blue Dress, will be replacing Singleton.
My two-cents: Seems like a smart move to me. Biopics are hard to nail.
