So the word is that Eazy E's Daughter Erin Bria Wright wants to play the role of her father rapper Eazy E in the upcoming N.W.A biopic. I wonder how that will work, but she does look like him. Also out for the role is Eazy E's son. It seems like a little sibling rivalry may start over this role, who will win it? Heres what Erin had to say:
"I have dreamed of getting this role for many years now, as I have always been inspired by how Hilary Swank played a boy in “Boys Don't Cry,” Wright said in a press release after learning of her brother's intentions to obtain the role."I feel the role of my dad in a biopic should “Not” just be a “given” to my brother Lil Eazy solely on the strength that he is my father's junior," she wrote.
"I think my brother should have to audition and earn the role by delivering a great read instead of just being handed the role—and I'd like to add that I feel I should have that same opportunity to audition for the role as well, and be given equal consideration based on my acting ability and not just my relation."(http://hiphopwired.com/2011/10/10/eazy-es-daughter-wants-the-role-of-her-father-in-n-w-a-biopic/)
"A movie about the influential West Coast rap group, N.W.A. is currently in pre-production stages.Former member Ice Cube will serve a one of the producers for the film entitled Straight Outta Compton, while John Singleton has been tapped to direct."(http://hiphopwired.com/2011/10/10/eazy-es-daughter-wants-the-role-of-her-father-in-n-w-a-biopic/)
