Eazy-E’s Son Upset He Won’t Be Playing His Father in N.W.A Film

Eazy-E's son, Lil Eazy-E, feels slighted that he wasn't chosen to play his late father in the upcoming N.W.A biopic and he's not happy about it all.

TMZ reports that Lil Eazy-E feels excluded from the making of the new N.W.A film. O'Shea Jackson, Jr., will play the role of his father, Ice Cube, so Lil Eazy-E feels he should have been given the same privilege, especially since neither he nor Jackson, Jr., have an acting background.

Actor Jason Mitchell was selected to play the role of Eazy-E. The famed son of the 'Eazy-Duz-It' rapper believes he should have received the part because of his resemblance to his dad. "I am my father. I look like him. I sound like him," he stated.

Apparently he thinks Ice Cube is "betraying" the wishes of his father by casting someone other than him to play his part.

In an interview earlier this year, when the full cast was still being assembled, director F. Gary Gray shared that he was open to getting either a trained actor or somebody from the hood to play all the parts.

"We'll it's just a certain thing that a person from the hood has," he explained. "There are times where a thespian can get there and give it to you, sometimes they can't and street credibility, it's just that thing."
