After the project spent just over three years on the backburner, it’s official: John Singleton is in to direct the upcoming Tupac Shakur biopic. According to Variety, the Boyz n the Hood director reentered the project nearly three years after dropping out because it’s a film he’s long wanted to make, and Singleton was close friends with Shakur before his tragic death. “Tupac was the guy who I planned to do a lifetime of films with,” Singleton told Variety. “His passing deeply affected my life as well as countless people in this world. His life story is as important to my generation.” (Complex)
