Queen Latifah and Will Smith are joining forces to bring the rapper-turned-actress’s life story to the big screen to show the rise of a cultural icon who transitioned seamlessly from music to film.
This highly anticipated biopic between the two entertainment industry giants will delve into the 54-year-old’s journey through Hip-Hop and beyond.
Queen Latifah publicly announced her excitement regarding the project and her collaboration with longtime friend Will Smith.
“We all came into this industry together, and Hip-Hop has shaped each and every one of us,” Latifah said in her statement. “Hip-Hop’s impact has expanded beyond just music and has created a lasting impression on culture and society overall. It is a dream to be able to collaborate with friends and colleagues that have not only a shared understanding but are able to tell these stories that were the backdrop of our lives.”
Will Smith, who will be producing the movie, emphasized the project’s significance and the synergy of their partnership.
“When you bring talented people and teams together, you can create something truly special,” Smith said. “I’m thrilled to work alongside Flavor Unit, Jesse Collins Entertainment, and HarbourView, to highlight the incredible stories of some of our favorite artists and icons. There’s no better story to start with than the one of Queen Latifah, an undisputed legend who has both entertained and inspired us for so many years.”
The film will take audiences through Latifah’s early days in the Hip-Hop scene, her evolution into a beloved actress, and her impact on pop culture.
Details on the cast remain under wraps, but interest in the project is already soaring, given the star power behind it.
This isn’t the first collaboration for Queen Latifah and Will Smith.
Their professional relationship traces back to the 1990s when Queen Latifah made guest appearances on Smith’s#### show “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air,” marking the early stages of her acting career.
