Sly: Notorius to HBO

Craig / / 2005, Nortorious
According to The New York Daily News, Sly has decided to take Notorious, his biopic of the murder of rapper Biggie Smalls to HBO.

Stallone is set to play [and possibly direct] LA Police homicide Detective Russell Poole, who probed the rapper’s still-unsolved murder and was the first to suggest that crooked cops might be behind it.

The Notorious BIG‘s death is currently a hot issue in LA due to the rapper’s wrongful death trial.

After the report of Sly‘s agreement to take Notorious to HBO appeared on the SZ, several websites, picked up the story and credited the StalloneZone and AB King [StalloneZone regular] for the news! You can see what I mean HERE, HERE,and even HERE.

Way to go, Andrew! – Craig Zablo
