Despite rumor that "Straight Outta Compton" will get a sequel featuring Tupac Shakur and Snoop Dogg story, a Universal spokesperson clarifies that the studio doesn't have any plan for the sequel as of now. "At this time there are no plans for a 'Straight Outta Compton' sequel," he says.
Rumor about the follow-up movie focusing on Tupac and Snoop as well as Nate Dogg, Kurupt, Daz Dillinger, Warren G and other West Coast rappers emerged after The Dogg Pound member Daz reportedly told TMZ that the movie would happen. He also posted on Instagram a photo that strengthened his comments. " 'STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON' Sequel Planned for... SNOOP, DOGG POUND & TUPAC," so read the words on the photo.
The rumor said that the sequel would not bring back the "Straight Outta Comptoon" stars. Dr. Dre and Ice Cube would not be producing but Cube was said to have approved the project and Dre's son, Curtis Young, was eyed for a role.
While it is still unclear whether the movie about Snoop and Tupac will happen in the future, fans can expect to enjoy the story of Tupac as his biopic is currently in the works. However, it seems like the movie is moving so slowly. It was previously scheduled to start filming in Atlanta in 2014, but the movie doesn't have any actor attached yet as of now.
