is reuniting with Dreamgirls director for a biopic movie about George Clinton. Murphy and Condon previously collaborated on 2006’s Dreamgirls, which also starred Jamie Foxx, Beyoncé Knowles, Danny Glover, and Jennifer Hudson.
The film earned Murphy an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor, while Hudson won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress.
Now, per Deadline, Murphy and Condon are working on a new, still untitled biopic about Parliament-Funkadelic leader George Clinton.
The script for the film is being written by Virgil Williams, based on an earlier draft by Max Werner. Lifelong George Clinton fan Catherine Davis approached Murphy, who will produce the movie, with the idea for the project.
Catherine Davis will also serve as a producer alongside John Davis and Greg Yolen. Charisse Hewitt-Webster, Clinton, Archie Ivy, and Jeff Jampol will serve as executive producers.
