Last year, the East Atlanta Santa released The Autobiography of Gucci Mane, an unbelievable tale of his journey as a pioneer of trap music, while fighting a lean addiction and a number of incarcerations. Gucci isn't new to the silver screen after playing himself in 2013's Spring Breakers, and this time his rumored return to feature films is for the film adaptation of his New York Times best-seller.With Paramount Players and Imagine Entertainment launching a development deal for rights to his story, we've gone through the trouble of casting the entire movie in advance.Chad Boseman is already the reigning king of biopics after playing Jackie Robinson and James Brown. Let's add Guwop to that list.Jason Mitchell knocked it out of the park as Eazy E in Straight Outta Compton. Playing Throwback should be light work.This is how Bokeem finally gets his Oscar.AYE!!Chyna was already a body double for Nicki in the "Monster" video, so she's basically a natural.God forgives, we don't.He can never be replaced.No, we're not joking.Have you ever seen Meryl Streep and Future in the same room? Neither have we.He's already got an Oscar for Moonlight. Why not get slimey?Again, not joking.Just imagine the method acting techniques he'd apply here.Why not keep it in the family?Follow Noisey on Twitter.
