  1. I also think that the TLC biopic with Drew Sidora (T Boz) Lil Mama (Left Eye) and Keke Palmer (Chili) was spot on and all had spectacular performances

  2. No way I’ve accepted anybody else over Denzel to play Malcom X wich I thought should’ve brought him his next Oscar

  3. Speaking of Belushi….Emile Hersh has been in talks to play Belushi in a biopic that has been approved by Belushi’s widow.

  4. Steven Spielberg needs to direct a Audrey Hepburn biopic.
    Also Ryan Gosling as Albert Einstein would go hand in hand.

  5. I love J.Phoenix in Walk the Line the johnny Cash Bio movie
    its so well playd he deserve an oscar for the performance !
