It appears that the N.W.A. biopic Straight Outta Compton is rapidly coalescing — but it may not be with John Singleton directing. Though he recently told the Playlist that he was talking about doing the project with his Boyz n the Hood cohort and N.W.A. alum Ice Cube (who is producing Compton), insiders say that New Line Cinema is focusing on three other directors: Hustle & Flow’s Craig Brewer, who’s expressed strong interest; Ice Cube’s old Friday director, F. Gary Gray; and, intriguingly, Friday Night Lights’ Peter Berg. Clear eyes, full hearts ... fuck tha police?

Inspector Rishi Review: Amazon Prime Video's horror-mystery series, starring Naveen Chandra, is mysterious and thrilling, as promised.
Testament The Story of Moses Review: The series depicts Moses' journey from an outcast and murderer to a prophet and liberator of the Hebrews. It interweaves docudrama and interviews, to present a more humanly image of the prophet.
Peter Berg really seems like a random choice.
