One of the most hyped movies of this year is Tupac Shakur’s “All Eyez On Me” biopic. There has been a few trailers that have surfaced on the Internet but today the official one has made waves. The trailer shows the close bond between Pac and Biggie before their infamous beef, Pac’s release from prison and more.
Tupac is played by Demetrius Shipp Jr. who is shown talking to the Notorious B.I.G. played by Jamal Woodard about the impact they can have through their music. Pac is also shown as a child with his stepfather and his mother, Afeni Shakur at a Black Panthers meeting.
The trailer also shows Pac in the studio making music, Suge Knight’s negative influence on him, his Quad Studios shooting, release from prison, skirmish at Mike Tyson’s fight, and more.
“All Eyez On Me” will star Kat Graham as longtime friend Jada Pinkett-Smith, Lauren Cohan as his manager Leila Steinberg, and Danai Gurira as Afeni Shakur. The Beeny Boom-directed film is set to hit theaters on June 16th, what would’ve been Pac’s 46th birthday.
