Tupac will be played by actor Marcc Rose in the upcoming N.W.A movie Straight Outta Compton, Entertainment Weekly reports.
Ice Cube posted a picture on Instagram for the late rapper’s birthday Tuesday (June 16) that said Tupac will be a character in the upcoming film.
Along with Tupac, Ice Cube, Eazy E, Dr. Dre, DJ Yella, MC Ren, Suge Knight, Chuck D, and Snoop Dogg will all be portrayed in the movie.
MC Ren took to Twitter last week to express his frustrations with the movie’s promotion, which focuses on only three of the group’s members.
Straight Outta Compton is scheduled for an August 14 release date.

Why the fuck would Tupac Be in the NWA movie?

^^ How is he retarded? That’s a good question.
Because he released nine album after his death…That’s why Tupac was portrayed..

Hey Dumb ass Victoria Hernandez. Pac’s birthday is JUNE 16th not July 16 you fucktard smh
Sorry nut hugger
Are they going to show when suge kept trying to strong arm ruthless records and it back fired on on suge and dre when easy e hired the jdl basically trained armed soldiers to guard the ruthless records building and artist. The jdl actually end up punking suge, easy e end up with Dr Dre catolouge.
thats not true
Easy E made more money of the chronic than Dre did.
Yea bone thugs n harmony should definitely be in this movie. When eazy put out btnh it blew life back into ruthless
@speed it is some truth to that, suge had to negotiate eazy e end up getting a deal that , he got paid of anything death row released with Dr Dre name on it, he got like 50 cents per copy of the chronic album, that’s why eazy said Dre day is eazys pay day on Compton g’s.
Bone Thugs N Harmony should be in the movie
all i kno is he better mf bring it when its comes to pac cause other try to play him in the past didnt work
I hope they portray The DOC like he deserves to be. He did play a HUGE part to the success of Ruthless & Death Row Records. The “Gangsta Ghostwriter”.
