Ice Cube’s son O’Shea Jackson Jr. is slated to play Ice Cube in the upcoming N.W.A. biopic Straight Outta Compton, according to The Wrap.
Universal hasn’t confirmed this casting, according to the publication. Nevertheless, the site says several individuals close to the project have confirmed the casting to The Wrap.
In February, Cube spoke with The Guardian. The former N.W.A star confirmed rumors that he wants his son, O’Shea, to play him in the movie.
“Yes. I’ve been trying to get that pushed along,” Ice Cube said at the time. “Just wanna make sure that he’s the best man for the job.”

Looking forward to this flick ’cause F. Gary Gray hasn’t made a movie for us since Set It Off. Both him and John Singelton make too many white movies now. Anyway, RIP to Rik Mayall and hello to Jason Issac.
Sit down with all that way of thinking.

The movie business is WAY bigger than just doing hood movies.
