Finally, the actor for the movie "Notorious B.I.G." has been found. Jamal "Gravy" Woolard will be playing the legendary MC, Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace in the movie.
“Finding B.I.G. was a task in itself, and I’m honored that so many young men came out to audition for the role,” Voletta Wallace, Biggie’s mother, said in a statement released Thursday (March 6). “However, it was Jamal’s charming personality, warm spirit, wonderful sense of humor and beautiful smile that won my heart. He is a talented and charismatic actor, and I am excited that he will bring Christopher’s character to the big screen.”
