AF: It could be the next project; that’s the goal. Eminem is still being a part of it, whether he’ll play the lead role or not, we’re discussing that. We’re talking to several other actors that I like a lot. I like Bradley Cooper, Jeremy Renner. I’ve spoken to Bradley about it; I’ve spoken to Jeremy about it. There are a handful of guys I’d be thrilled to work with. There’s Ryan Gosling. But that process has just begun.
VM: Will we ever see the Tupac Shakur biopic he was previously attached to direct, which has been in and out of development for 2 or 3 years?
AF: I hope so. I just want a great script; it’s too important.
VM: The script is still being re-worked?
AF: yes.
