Production is finally under way on the anticipated Tupac Shakur biopic with confirmation in the casting department. All Eyez On Me, which will be directed by music video veteran Benny Boom, will portray the characters of actress Jada Pinkett Smith, Death Row Records boss Suge Knight and Tupac's mother Afeni Shakur.
Confirmed to play Pinkett Smith is singer and Vampire Diaries actress Kat Graham, who shared a photo of herself on set of the film with director Boom via Instagram. Sharing her excitement about the coveted role, Graham, 26, told The Wrap: "I've known about a few weeks now, and only officially could really start talking about it yesterday.
"So I immediately emailed Jada's brother, who I know, and I was like, 'You've got to tell her I'm in it!' But I heard that we're really similar, [we're both] musicians, producers and actresses – and tiny and sassy. So it works! I think it's going to work."
Pinkett Smith, 44, is known to have been close friends with Tupac having attended the Baltimore School For The Arts together. Opening up about their friendship in an interview with Howard Stern in 2015, Pinkett Smith explained: "It's so funny. Now being older, I have more of an understanding of what that was between us.
