An Ol’ Dirty Bastard biopic is said to be in the works

Biopics are all the rage now days after the huge success of “Straight Outta Compton” and now we have a pretty serious Tupac biopic coming in the near future. RZA has now spoken with Rolling Stone talking about a Ol’ Dirty Bastard biopic "I think it’s a great idea, and there has been talk about it, there are a few wheels in motion with one done by our first cousin Rayshawn; he was the young guy there watching everything that happened. Him and ODB’s wife have been talking and he has a pretty interesting script. I just saw a 12-minute teaser that he shot about a year ago and it felt pretty fucking cool. I watched it and was like, ‘Wow, you may have something here.’ He has the best thing that I’ve seen so far.” RZA continues  "I wouldn’t mind not doing it and I wouldn’t mind doing it. From the age of six, me and [ODB] used to push shopping carts around grocery stores and try to get nickels. There are very few people who know the real him as much as me. So it would be something that I would be honored to do, but there’s a lot of moving parts to it. If those moving parts don’t go in sync with me, I’ll still be on it just to see it happen, talk to whoever’s doing it and give them my interviews or whatever they need to help make this story as great as possible.” Hopefully this does happen because as someone who doesn’t know much about Ol’ Dirty Bastard and other people like me from my generation we could get a good look into his life.
