Sylvester Staollone Film Notorious Scrapped
Actor Sylvester Stallone says his film “Notorious” – a biopic he was developing based on the murders of Tupac Shakur and the Notorious B.I.G. – has stalled and may have been permanently shelved by HBO.“I became involved in the Tupac/Biggie project about four years ago,” said Stallone, who planned on directing and acting in the cable TV movie.“Gathering all the data, these two giant rap stars were murdered in front of numerous witnesses and no arrests have ever been made. This, on the surface, said to me some very important people had to be involved. Police chiefs?”Stallone was to portray a police officer who gets blackballed after exposing dirty cops’ involvement in the homicides.“The story was like a modern-day noir written from the point-of-view of a Detective [Russell] Poole, who basically was railroaded out of the police department because the more he investigated, the dirtier the high rollers in city hall and police commissions and DA offices all appeared to be part of a conspiracy to squash this case.“I don’t think it’ll ever be done because of the amount of lawsuits that would be filed.” Illest Lyrics would like to recommend you checking out the new "Rocky" movie in theaters this month.
