PRODUCTION COMANY SUES 2PAC’S ESTATE
The production company Morgan Creek has sued Amaru Entertainment, alleging that the company ran by Afeni Shakur has reneged on an agreement to sell 2Pac’s life rights for an upcoming film.
According to Hiphopdx, Amaru and Morgan Creek started their negotiations in November of 2008 for the until Tupac biopic. The complaint is a written contract for the late Shakur’s life rights. The representatives from Morgan Creek are unhappy with the Amaru Entertainment’s “refusal to honor and perform a contract of a production of the film based on the life of Tupac Shakur.” As of right now, they are seeking financial damages and other relief. The lawyer for Amaru, Skip Miller, says no written contract was place saying that Amaru will take defensive measures. The rights and permission from Afeni Shakur aren’t needed to make the film since 2pac was a public figure and an agreement would need to be reached to include any works of 2Pac’s musical catalogue.
