Clifton Powell Cast In Tupac Shakur Movie
All week long we’ve been dropping casting exclusives about the upcoming Tupac Shakur biopic. Today we’ve got two for you. We can exclusively reveal that veteran actor Clifton Powell will appear in the film as Floyd, an O.G. at the Clinton Correctional Facility where Tupac served time.
Producer LT Hutton shared this snap of Powell being filmed on his Instagram.
It looks like they’ve invested in some really good solid actors. We’re hoping this film is as good as if not better than Straight Outta Compton.

We’re also excited to reveal that relative newcomer Johnell Young will be appearing in ‘All Eyez On Me’ as Ray Luv, Tupac’s best friend and a member of Pac’s group Strictly Dope.
