Paramount Pictures is set to produce a biopic of Bob Marley’s life, and a release from Tuff Gong International said Jamaican casting for the film is now underway! This is a movie we cannot wait to watch, and it’s awesome to hear how closely involved the Marley family is in the production. According to the release, Cedella Marley, Rita Marley, Ziggy Marley, and Stephen Marley were named producers.

Cedella Marley said, “We view this project as a continuation of the tremendous and unending mission of sharing our father's commitment to the truth and to spreading love and oneness as he did during his time with us, and we're very excited to be in this phase.”

 Reflecting on the production, Ziggy said, "I remember my father as a man of love and peace above all else. We are humbled that the world continues to value him in the way that this movie will portray. The film allows his works to reach new generations and should be seen as offering the world fresh hope in what has been a bleak period. I am happy that our Jamaican brothers and sisters similarly embrace this project."
