Lil Eazy-E Discusses Not Being Chosen to Play His Father in NWA Biopic

Eric Wright Jr., aka Lil Eazy-E, spoke exclusively with VladTV about not being chosen to play his late father in the NWA biopic, Straight Outta Compton. While he explained that he's not a trained actor, Wright told us that he knew he could play the role of his father, including the more serious toned death scenes.
During the conversation Lil Eazy-E also addressed discrepancies he saw in the film, including how they portrayed the "We Want Eazy" rapper as being broke. Wright told us that his father was living in the biggest mansion of his career at that point in his life, and Lil Eazy pointed out that his father was carrying the weight of Ruthless with his platinum albums.
Check out more of what Lil Eazy-E had to say in the above clip, including him addressing the NWA biopic scene where Suge Knight beats up Eazy-E.

[@MistaGeeFunk]

Maybe they didn't want him to play Eazy because he knows the real story, and would have asked questions or refused the scenes that were not historically correct.

[@flavaflave6145]

exactly what i thought . they wanted no one putting in opinions for the ones alive .

[@AntiRiku]

Yup, that's what I always thought. Dre and Cube's version differed alot from reality and what really happened. However that's just speculation, who knows. Maybe this dude just couldn't act for shit.

[@hunterdeclown]

the movie is based on ice cube and dr dres point of view .so it wouldnt be historically accurate cause i dont think they want the public to know everything about the past

[@rks5457]

@@kellykelz9980 it wasn't just paying to be in acting schools, it's that cube has a long history and massive connections in hollywood from starring in and producing movies for over 20 years. Lil E couldve prob found a way to get some experience w theater or student productions from his name alone. A lot of actors never even went to film, theater, acting schools. It looks like part of it was a lack of motivation to act and likely others who didn't mentor him. I always felt like the others always held a deep resentment for Eazy even though they publically respected him after his death and that shitty movie confirmed it.

He’s not a trained actor. Cubes son is a trained actor who studied film at usc.

[@TheMuzikTrail]

He might not say it but I understand that frustration of having to vie for yourself, after a parent especially someone that was as influential and respected as Easy was, passes away and everyone who was supposed to look out for you looks the other way. Cube is going to make sure his son is set no matter what, Easy’s kids had to start all over while being hood famous which amounts to nothing but a painful memory their Dad isn’t here anymore.

Pussy Breaker suge knight said in a interview that he don’t need a gun to kill and brought up injecting hiv through a needle gets your facts straight bud

[@Bloombaby99]

The timeline doesn't match up for Suge to have killed Eazy so it couldn't have been him but I do believe it was a lethal injection. It may have been those doctors he was with that kept him isolated.

I would've loved if Lil Easy E was cast to play the role of his father! Also I really want a Bone Thugs movie I know they would make sure his son plays him!

6:20 and that's his Dad's voice! If theres an Eazy-E film then Lil Eazy is perfect for the role

I was listening to this video (not watching) with other tabs open on my browser doing work and when the DOC started talking at 12:52 it scared the HOLY FUCKING SHIT OUTTA me. Geezus.

King James lol his voice is annoying

[@michelle9043]

DANG! he looks like his pops. Amazing

[@williamclark8864]

A lot of the discrepancies in Straight Outta Compton seem to me like they weren't really malicious. It was either because it made for better script (e.g. Eazy getting beat up) or because it was simpler (e.g. leaving Arabian Prince out). Some stuff was def to make Dre & Cube look better (e.g. leaving out the Dee Barnes incident, making it look like Eazy was all upset about the Chronic, etc.). But most was probably because it would have just taken too long to explain.

[@tarantinoking1220]

As much as I would love to watch a movie about these dudes and everything is accurate and happened the way it happened that’s a lot of money and a long ass fuckin movie. They gotta hit s run time quota.

[@ameado2010]

They left certain things out to keep them from paying people or lawsuits.

[@thekingstable204]

Respect for protecting your dads legacy. Many would put out the gangster side of E to push their persona, but he focuses on E the father and the businessman rather than E the gangster

[@missuniverse7991]

I love the fact that he has so much respect for Ice Cube. Much respect for Easy the Legend and lil Easy.

Thats a doggone shame. Hollywood could have got this brother together and would have made even more dollars since they are about dollars..... how sinful. I hope this young Man and siblings get Peace, proper representation and due for their Fathers hard work and legacy. God Bless them and prayers are going up. Who would have more insight than this Mans son?

Eazy kept signing mickey mouse 😂 what a G. Rest in peace. GOAT.

[@VMPhilosophy]

This dude has his head on straight. Very cool, calm, practical and logical. Very similar to Easy himself. but man, he does not want to say Suge's name.

Oh my god that voice!!! same as eric...but let's be real everyone knows deep down why he didn't get the part.

[@maximillianoortiz9255]

Damn so offensive towards his son

his son agrees that he did it well

[@trapperblaze8024]

As awesome as it would be to have him in the movie, he's not eazys weight at all He has his character tho

[@pepieverage6788]

that's messed up they could have let him play that part of his father if weight was a issue they could have helped him with that, Just how I feel,

[@maroe5472]

He ain’t even fat he’s just super swole

[@battlesyt9480]

Ice cubes son had the same problem with Wright he was bigger than real young ice cube so they had to slim him down a bit. Also weight had nothing to do with it dr dre was just bashing him

[@lostintoonami]

I think the reason they made it seem like Easy went broke was so the Ending can have more impact and I don't think they picked Lil Easy for his dad's part was probably because they were scared he wouldnt be able to handle the role since its more personal for him.

[@ghalebabualsoud2043]

I love how chill he is
