Snoop Dogg’s biopic<\/a> has cast Swayvo Twain, the son of D’Angelo, as The Notorious B.I.G.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The Snoop Dogg biopic, simply titled Snoop, was announced in 2022, and is now ramping up for release next summer. Over the last couple of months, the film has added a number of actors to its cast to play legendary rappers like the titular musician himself, Nate Dogg, Dr. Dre, Tupac, and more. The movie is comprised of a mostly unknown\/up-and-coming cast, which now includes Swayvo Twain, the son of D’Angelo.<\/p>\n

Swayvo Twain will play one of the all-time great hip-hop artists, The Notorious B.I.G., in the film. It’s unclear how much screen time he’ll have in the actual movie itself, but he obviously played a big role in the rise of rap in the ’90s. Snoop Dogg and Notorious B.I.G. were heavily involved in the East-Coast-West-Coast rivalry, which will almost certainly play a role in the movie. The film is being directed by Craig Brewer, who helmed 2025’s Song Sung Blue and 2005’s Hustle and Flow. <\/p>\n

Snoop Dogg himself is having a pretty active time in the entertainment industry as a whole. The rapper is the current elusive target in Hitman and will play an original character in the Yakuza prequel, Stranger Than Heaven,<\/a> next year. Tupac’s likeness is also being leveraged for a different character in that title<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Snoop is expected to hit theaters on August 6, 2027.<\/p>\n
