With Straight Outta Compton doing the box office numbers that it’s doing, it has opened the dialogue for a ton of other biopics as well. Master P has already announced his, and a Dogg Pound film has also been discussed. Now there’s talks of a Death Row film, a sort of spin-off from SOC as we got a brief introduction to them in the movie.

Welcome To Death Row, a documentary released in 2001 that covered the business dealings of Death Row Records and that later spawned a book, is being shopped as a movie, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The APA talent agency is shopping the film by S. Leigh Savidge, who wrote an early version of the Straight Outta Compton script and co-executive produced the film. The N.W.A biopic has been the #1 film at the box office for three consecutive weeks and has grossed more than $140 million at the box office.
The issue, though, is the music rights aren’t included in the pitch. That’s been a major issue with the Tupac biopic, but hopefully this can be sorted out!
