Fans will be able to see the dramatic life of Suge Knight on the small screen.
According to TMZ, the jailed Death Row Records co-founder is turning his drama-filled life story into a TV program that will not only discuss what the public is aware of, but will also delve further into his life.
Their insiders said he and his brother, Brian Brown, are working on a project that will begin filming this summer.
The outlet said that the program will have a similar tone to 50 Cent's "BMF," with a lot of storyline time given to depict Suge's life before entering the music industry. It will all begin with his tale as a youngster growing up in Compton who aspired to be a football coach.
Suge Knight is also said to be seeking for the right actor to portray his life in the TV show, as well as the star who would play Tupac Shakur, because he wants both characters to embody the icon's mannerisms and flair.

Did Suge Knight Have Tupac Murdered?
There is no clear proof that Suge Knight was involved in Tupac Shakur's death. Tupac was killed in a drive-by shooting on September 13, 1996, in Las Vegas, while travelling in a vehicle with Suge Knight.
While there have been several speculations regarding who was responsible for Tupac's murder, no one has been shown to be solely guilty. Suge Knight has denied any role in Tupac's death, and the matter is still unresolved.
It's important remembering that at the time of Tupac's death, Suge Knight and Tupac were close friends and business partners. Knight was driving the automobile at the time of the shooting and was also hurt in the incident.
Despite rumors and speculation, there is no tangible proof tying Suge to Tupac's death.
