In addition to “LAbyrinth,” an upcoming fictionalized film on the investigations into the murders of Tupac & Biggie, as well as the upcoming Tupac biopic, Anthony Hemingway is shifting from his work on FX’s “The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story” and turning his true-crime lens on the deaths of Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls (a.k.a. Notorious B.I.G.) in an upcoming project for the USA Network.

Based on the experiences of former LAPD Detective Greg Kading, who wrote the book “Murder Rap: The Untold Story of Biggie Smalls & Tupac Shakur Murder Investigations,” a pilot has been ordered for “Unsolved,” which will chronicle the two major police investigations into the rappers’ murders. Hemingway will direct the pilot and serve as an Executive Producer, alongside Mark Taylor and Kyle Long, who is penning the script.

No ETA at this time.




The feature film “LAbryinth” will also tackle the 1990s investigation into the unsolved murders of Tupac and Biggie, unfolding through the eyes of the Los Angeles detective – Russell Poole – who was in charge of the inquiry; Johnny Depp is attached to star.

And the upcoming Tupac Shakur biopic, “All Eyez on Me,” is currently being shopped to distributors. The film chronicles the life and legacy of Shakur, including his rise to superstardom as a hip hop artist and actor, as well as his imprisonment and prolific, controversial time at Death Row Records, where he was steeped in the East coast/West coast rap war.

The feature film is written by Jeremy Haft & Ed Gonzalez and Steve Bagatourian, and is directed by Benny Boom. Newcomer Demetrius Shipp Jr stars as Tupac Shakur; Danai Gurira is Afeni Shakur; Kat Graham plays Jada Pinkett; Annie Ilonzeh is Kidada Jones; Lauren Cohan plays Leila Steinberg; and Jamal Woolard reprises his role from “Notorious” as Biggie Smalls.
