Biggie Movie is Casting

From Concrete Loop:

The role of the late rap legend Notorious B.I.G. for an upcoming film based on his life will be filled by an unknown via an open casting call, reports the Associated Press.
The biopic, which will be called Notorious, has been in the works for some seven years. According to the picture’s producers, the title role will be cast by auditioning both actors and non-actors alike who bear a resemblance to the rapper. Audition videos will be accepted beginning at 3 a.m. EDT on Sunday at www.foxsearchlight.com/notorious or www.biggiecasting.com.
