It’s official. Not only will Tupac be making an appearance in the N.W.A. biopic Straight Outta Compton, but we also now know the man who will play the role. Entertainment Weekly confirmsthat a relative unknown by the name of Marcc Rose will be playing the late great in the film.

Rose had been previously rumored for the role in the now defunct John Singleton-helmed Tupac film, but EW debunked that rumor. We’ll soon find out if Rose can act the part because the biopic hits theaters on August 14. As far as resemblance to ‘Pac goes, Rose is about as good as it gets.
