How did Tupac get the role?
Gerard Brown said Tupac just so happened to be in the hallway where the crew was holding auditions. He was there accompanying his fellow Digital Underground member, Money B. He was rapping. And remember, rappers were in demand for this picture. Dickerson, the director, stumbled upon Tupac and asked him if he wanted to audition. Originally, they had him read for the role of Q. Brown said he was alright as Q but then they asked him to read for the role of Bishop. Pac stepped out and when he came back in and read the lines and even threw a chair during the audition, making him a shoe-in for the role.
