Art Streiber “Snoop,” an R-rated movie about the life of Snoop Dogg, is hitting theaters next summer.
Universal Pictures slated the film for release on Aug. 6, 2027. It’s currently set to open alongside Disney’s “The Bluey Movie” and Black Bear’s “Jason Statham Stole My Bike.”
“Outer Banks” star Jonathan Daviss is playing the titular role in “Snoop,” described by Universal as the “definitive biopic of the artist, mogul and icon of gangsta rap.” Craig Brewer, best known for “Song Sung Blue” and “Hustle & Flow,” is directing the movie, which will incorporate music from the singer’s vast catalogue. Some of Snoop’s biggest hits include “Drop it Like It’s Hot,” “Gin and Juice,” “What’s My Name” and “Nuthin’ but a ‘G’ Thang.”
