With his directorial debut, The Man With the Iron Fists, right around the corner, the RZA is already making plans for future cinematic project. The Wu-Tang Clan leader has not one but two biopics in the works for his deceased bandmate, Ol’ Dirty Bastard.
One film is entitled Dirt: One Word Could Change the World, and it focuses on ODB’s early life and family. RZA recently opened up about the project, saying,
The second film, Dirty White Boy looks at the final two years of ODB’s life and at his manager. Rolling Stone speculates that RZA might be scoring that film and that he might be included a couple of times in the script. As far as directing, though, he said, “I dunno, it depends. Right now I’m not, though.” There’s no word yet on a release date for either film.
