According to Deadline, Grace Gibson will star as famed R&B singer Faith Evans. Gibson, the daughter of world-renowned actress Lynn Whitfield, signed on to portray Evans in the Benny Boom-directed motion picture.
The singer will also act alongside Jamal Woolward, who played Biggie Smalls in the Notorious biopic.
Recently, Kat Graham signed on to play Jada Pinkett-Smith, while former The Wire actor, Jamie Hector, will assume the role of Pac’s stepfather, Mutulu Shakur. But one of the biggest additions was The Walking Dead’s Danai Gurira.
