Snoop Dogg Has Tapped Ryan Cooler & Lee Daniels To Work On His Biopic

After being in the game for over 20 years, I’m surprised that a Snoop Dogg biopic hasn’t been made or discussed yet before 2018, but it looks like we’re getting it now.

During a conversation with 102.3 FM host Vic Jagger, Snoop revealed a biopic based on his life is coming, and he has an idea somewhat of the direction he wants to take. “I’m thinking more along the lines of when you watch great shows like Narcos on Netflix,” he said. “You know, how like Narcos went from Escobar to Cali cartel, now it’s about to go to Mexico. I’m thinking like a Snoop Dogg biopic.”

Snoop then revealed that Lee Daniels and Ryan Coolger were on board to help Snoop’s biopic come to life. “I already got with somebody. I don’t even want to expose the names like that but I got some big wigs connected to it, some wigs. It’s like some wiggathons. If I said these names, I mean these are some real wiggathons. So you want me to tell you their names? In conjunction with Lee Daniels and Ryan Coogler.”

Watch both clips below.
