Cash Money Records rappers B.G. and Juvenile are putting a Hot Boys biopic on the table.
While B.G. was a guest on the Sept. 16 episode of podcast Still 400, the New Orleans native proposed a Hot Boys biopic similar to Straight Outta Compton, the 2015 movie based on N.W.A.
Around the 55-minute mark of the video below, B.G. said the potential movie could be a “blockbuster,” to which Juvenile called on production studios Warner Brothers, Lionsgate and Universal to follow through with a deal.
“The shit I've been through, shit you've been through, shit Wayne been through. … All of us done been through some shit. We all got a story to tell,” Juvenile explained.
The rappers stood firm against a screenwriter using AI for the script and Juvenile went on to pitch a Hot Boys miniseries.
