Who killed the Notorious B.I.G.?
Brad Furman has a strong suspicion, and he s ready with a three-word response to people s questions about the 1997 murder of rapper Christopher Wallace, who was shot to death in Los Angeles just six months after Tupac Shakur met the same fate in Las Vegas. Watch the movie, says the Philadelphia-born movie director, speaking of City of Lies, his new crime procedural â based on a true story, but with fictional elements â that stars Johnny Depp and Forest Whitaker.
Depp s character is based on the late LAPD detective Russell Poole and his efforts to get to the bottom of the case. Whitaker s character is a made-up journalist loosely based on a real author.
