A Gucci Mane biopic is on the way! Paramount Pictures and Imagine Entertainment have acquired the rights to the rapper’s memoir, “The Autobiography of Gucci Mane.”

Paramount also retained the life rights to Gucci’s book and will partner with Imagine, the same producers responsible for telling Eminem‘s story with 8 Mile, to bring La Flare’s life story to the big screen.

Via Rolling Stone:

The Autobiography of Gucci Mane charts the rapper, born Radric Davis,’ journey from his childhood in Alabama to his rise in Southern hip-hop and the forerunner of trap music.

The memoir, written largely while Mane was serving a lengthy prison sentence, also tackles the rapper’s addiction issues and run-ins with the law.

Gucci Mane’s glow-up continues and I’m totally here for it.

Congrats!
