It has been a while since Biggie left us. But in an effort to make since of his life Fox Searchlight Films has cast the lead roles and begun shooting a film based on his life.
The role of Biggie Smalls went to rapper Jamal "Gravy" Woodard who beat out other hopefuls such as Beanie Sigel.
Biggie's mother is being played by Angela Basset and the movie should be out in 2009.
Biggie Smalls who's real name is Christopher Wallace was killed in March of 1997 by someone in a vehicle that pulled up next to the Suburban that he was riding in and opened fire.
Big was rushed to the hospital but die from his wounds. The Hip-Hop world was again stripped of another great talent.
Most people speculate that Bigg's death was the result of the East Coast/West Coast feud that also claimed Tupac's life 6 months earlier.
Rip Big and Pac.
One Love, One Nation, One World.
