Notorious B.I.G. Authorized Documentary Announced

The Notorious B.I.G. will be the subject of a new authorized documentary, Variety reports. The film, tentatively titled Notorious B.I.G.: One More Chance, will be made in collaboration with his mother, Violetta Wallace. Directed by Emmet and Brendan Malloy (The White Stripes: Under Great White Northern Lights), it’s currently in development with Submarine Entertainment (Muscle ShoalsMiss Sharon Jones!) and ByStorm. The companies made the announcement at the Berlin Film Festival. “The challenge of making a film about one of the most influential artists of my generation is what I live for as a filmmaker,” director Emmet Malloy said.

This year marks the 20th anniversary of Biggie’s death. A collection of his duets with Faith Evans is due out in May, while two television shows and a Johnny Depp-starring film about his life are also in the works.
