casting details

As interest in the music and life of Sly Stone continues to grow with the release of Questlove’s upcoming documentary, a biopic about the legendary musician seems inevitable. The film would trace Stone’s journey from his early days in the San Francisco music scene to his rise to fame as the frontman of Sly and the Family Stone, and his subsequent struggles with addiction and legal troubles.

With his flamboyant style, electrifying stage presence, and groundbreaking fusion of rock, funk, and soul, Sly Stone remains an icon of American music, and his story is one that deserves to be told on the big screen.
