While the details of the Tupac Shakur biopic are still being worked out, John Singleton is in negotiations about possibly directing the flick. The opportunity comes almost 20 years after he directed “Poetic Justice” starring Tupac and Janet Jackson. Both the director and rapper became close friends during filming, which would definitely give the director an edge in directing the very personal film. Previously, the project was under the direction of “Training Day” director, Antoine Fuqua, however, it seems as if he was having a hard time casting the main role. As a result, he gave up and decided to move on to the next thing, leaving the biopic hanging in the air.
