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.'

On newsstands now!

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.

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!
