It is being reported that Marvin Gaye‘s biopic, What’s Going On, will be hitting the big screen in 2023. Both Jan Gaye, Marvin Gaye‘s widow, and Motown Records are on board, which means that the film will have the rights to use Gaye‘s music.
The script will be authored by playwright Marcus Gardley, while Allen Hughes from the Hughes Brothers (credits: Menace II Society and Dead Presidents) will be the director. Hip-hop producer and artist Dr. Dre and Interscope Records’ co-founder Jimmy Iovine are among the producers.
