The search for an unknown actor to play Biggie Smalls in Searchlight's upcoming film NOTORIOUS has made it into Time magazine...

It's also available on Time's Web site:

"No current Hollywood star could 'capture the essence' of the late Christopher Wallace, a.k.a. NOTORIOUS B.I.G., say producers of an upcoming biopic about the slain rapper. That’s why the role of Biggie in the new film Notorious will be filled through an online open casting call. On Aug. 12 at 3 A.M., actors and, well, nonactors began submitting audition videos at biggiecasting.com. 'I don’t want you to just imitate him,' advises Voletta Wallace, film producers and Biggie’s mom (Sean 'Diddy' Combs is another producer). 'I want to see his swagger, his style, his energy and smile come through.'

Tell your artists. We don't own slaves. We don't believe in violence or confrontations about stolen works of art or other intellectual properties. It costs us too much money. Stay on MySpace and never use anything your society stole from No_Heist on wackplanet. We do not want to be a prince, rebel, prophet, model, professor, messiah, taliban,teacher,diplomat, military officer, poet, director, cabbie,preacher,customer service rep,real estate broker,lab tech,boxer,pimp,(well, maybe till your cultish behavior slows down),black panther sounding board,or homeboy. All of that is very silly like increasing the price of milk,bananas, and peanuts because foreign countries have a more cohesive moral consciousness and are not relying on imports from an oily rogue named 'veronica'. Listen, we do not pass-a -fist with degenerates or corrupt officers of the whores. We are peace seeking citizens of the universe, who simply fail to love you for your illegal legal TORTURE from el paso to Prince Georges county, to new brunswick to newark, new jersey. The law stinks right now because of these illiterate vultures outing honorable officers, and priests for their low brow superiority. So please inspire yourselves with what you can music. No more name or concept jacking. You will choke on hip hope, when the real Prince Rebel, One_Kind,and Mental Heist further direct you into a banana boat. Do the american who work a favor and do your work and die slowly. American still does not fully love you. Only I can redeem you but I refuse to die for your sins this time. God bless.

What happened to my dude from da Bronx AKA Cha-Truce? I know he will definately rep NY on da role of one ofJunior Mafias Character. Im tellin you dat catz has gotten mad props while touring in NC!

Knowone can ever replace BIGGIE,what often happens in the duplication process.We get caught up with trying to get the exact or close to the same.We lose focus on getting to find someone with the fiber that made up that indivual.I hope that the film really give the world a good dose of what a gifted talented person we lost.Society needs to see the good,the bad,and the ugly in all of us to be reminded that we all have gifts from of above. How we go about showing them maybe not favorable with others who maybe a little bit fortunate,but we all have the SPECIAL GIFT of LIFE. NEVER GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAMS,YOUR HOPES,and YOUR WILL TO DO THE IMPOSSIABLE. JUST DON'T DO IT, NEVER GIVE UP.............I will be sending my video this week...sign..NEVER GIVING UP ...Big ROB from Orlando,Fl. via NYC..via..S.C.....EMAIL ME AT BIG POPPA0507@YAHOO.COM.....6'3 307LBS MAY 7

What about casting for Diddy, Junior Mafia, etc....

The perfect match would be my homie Pedz from Milford,DE... He has the style and swagger with out a doubt.. His voice is not as deep as the the great B.I.G though.. 302 ALL DAY WACTH WHAT I TELL YA

I think it would be a great opportunity to play the part, regardless of the consequences. Unfortunately without the resources available, I am not applicable for the part. I am taking this as an opportunity to put myself into position for the role. I did read the information presented, and it sounds like a great opportunity. Peace!

I would like to know what has been done for the Star's of the Movies little Ismail, his brother and little latika. The momentum in the movie was given by the kids and they deserve to be rich and famous. I saw Hindustan times today where they had the Video of the Ismail in his small one sexy lingerie room family Slum. He was with his mother who looked very poor with same life style that she had before this movie released. I would like to know from those responsible (Dany, Rehman Ji) for making this movie what are they doing to do jstice with the Ismail and other's. It will be shame on the director's if they don't give wholesale lingerie these kids and family the educiation, life style, the respect they deserve for making this movie a great success and allow you to hold oscar in your hand. Just look inside your heart and do the right things for these slum kids

I UNDERSTAND SOMEONE WHO HAVE NO CHANCE TO WIN SAYING THAT
