LOS ANGELES - Film production company Morgan Creek is in a legal turf war with the estate of Tupac Shakur.
The Rick Nicita-topped production house has sued Amaru Entertainment, the company run by Afeni Shakur, the late rapper’s mother and executor, alleging in a Los Angeles Superior Court filing that the company has backed out of an agreement to sell his life rights for a film adaptation.
Negotiations between Morgan Creek and Amaru began in November for life rights that would form the basis of the untitled project....
...Life rights and collaboration with an executor are not always necessary with a public figure like Shakur, though they would be essential if the filmmakers hope to include music, as they would in this case.

Do you realize what this means? It means that there have been recent talks about a 2Pac movie! I have been waiting for this since 1996 when Makaveli passed away. I am super excited about this possibility. If it really comes outI swear I will watch it 8 times!!! lol
