Snoop Dogg Film To Be Directed By ‘Hustle & Flow's Craig Brewer At Universal
EXCLUSIVE: Craig Brewer has been set by Universal Pictures to direct what the studio believes will be the definitive biopic of Snoop Dogg in his growth from hip hop star to iconic entertainment mogul. Brewer will contribute revisions to a script previously written by Joe Robert Cole. The film will be produced by Snoop Dogg, Brian Grazer and Death Row Pictures president Sara Ramaker. SVP Production Development Ryan Jones will oversee the project for the studio. More from Deadline Focus Features Sets Christmas Day 2025 Release For 'Song Sung Blue' From Davis Entertainment As Stars Hugh Jackman & Kate Hudson Reveal First Look Snoop Dogg & His Death Row Pictures Ink Multi-Year Deal With NBCUniversal Ang Lee To Direct 'Old Gold Mountain' Brewer, whose gritty music-driven films include Hustle & Flow and Dolomite is My Name, most recently directed Song Sung Blue for Universal's specialty studio Focus Features, which will be released domestically on December 25, 2025. The Snoop Dogg film is the first project under Death Row Pictures' overall deal with NBCUniversal Entertainment & Studios. It's an outgrowth of Death Row Records, the label that launched Snoop Dogg's star and now embarks on an ambitious new chapter with the expansion. The strategic evolution cements the brand's influence beyond music, ushering in a new era of innovative onscreen storytelling. Universal has found success in the historical hip hop space with the F. Gary Gray-directed Straight Outta Compton, the story of the seminal rap group N.W.A which was nominated for a Best Screenplay Oscar and grossed more than $200 million. Before that came 8 Mile, which starred Eminem in a drama based on his life and rise. Grazer produced that film, which grossed $250 million and won an Original Song Oscar for 'Lose Yourself.' Death Row's upcoming slate of projects starts with the Snoop Dogg biopic. Beyond film, Snoop will return to NBC's musical competition series The Voice this fall, reclaiming his red chair for Season 28. On top of that, he will continue to partner with NBCUniversal on cross-portfolio opportunities; he was a breakout star on NBC and Peacock's coverage of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. Brewer is represented by WME and Goodman, Genow.

Botched Presents: Plastic Surgery Rewind Trailer Revealed; Kim Zolciak Stars
She's back! E! Just dropped the trailer for their new series, Botched Presents: Plastic Surgery Rewind, and it features none other than Real Housewives of Atlanta alum, Kim Zolciak. She'll be joining a group of celebrities to take a 'transformative journey of self-discovery' at the Rewind Retreat. Even better? Her daughter, Brielle Biermann, is also on the cast. They're about to bond over whether or not they want to reverse their plastic surgeries. We first learned of this new series during the NBCUniversal upfronts. It stars Dr. Terry Dubrow, Michelle Visage, and Dr. Spirit, PhD. They're taking nine celebrities and influencers to the Rewind Retreat to help them reconsider some of the plastic surgery they have. The synopsis explains, 'Through eye-opening challenges, unexpected emotional connections and laugh-out-loud moments, the participants are asked to look within while reassessing their concept of beauty.' According to the cast announcement, Kim will be reevaluating one of her procedures, while Brielle will be considering the pros and cons of facial fillers. Brielle's time at the Rewind Retreat comes ahead of her wedding, and she supposedly wants a 'softer look' for the big day. In addition to the Don't Be Tardy alums, the cast also includes Danity Kane member Aubrey O'Day. Just like Kim, she never misses an opportunity to appear on a random reality show. Similarly to Brielle, she'll be spending her time at the 'retreat' contemplating the filler in her face. Other reality stars joining the show are Jessica Dime from Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta and 90 Day Fiancé star Larissa Santos Lima. Rounding out the cast are Alan McGarry, Kathy Brown, Sophia Elgerabli, and Sebatisan Bails. Botched Presents: Plastic Surgery Rewind premieres Wednesday, July 9 at 10/9c on E! Episodes will be available seven days later on Peacock. TELL US – WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE TRAILER FOR PLASTIC SURGERY REWIND? ARE YOU SURPRISED TO SEE KIM JOINING THE CAST? The post Botched Presents: Plastic Surgery Rewind Trailer Revealed; Kim Zolciak Stars appeared first on Reality Tea.
