Lil Cease kid actor a joke?


Was he supposed to look like a 15 year old smoking a blunt? I didn't really understand why they would choose this kid to play as a rapper when he looks and sounds like a boy still. But the movie was a train wreck as far as acting goes.

Because at the time Cease was pretty much a kid. They were keeping the movie true to life. Cease was a teenager when he was with Big.

reply

Yeah but this kid looked like he was about 12 years old. Horrible casting. This movie sucks on so many levels.

reply

I saw an interview in which Cease said that he was 13 yrs old when he started hanging with Big..so again, accurate casting.

reply

Ive seen what LIL Cease looked like while he was with Biggie; he was in all of Junior Mafias videos, which were released before they had the car accident. He looked no where near 13.

Cease's own words.

and i've seen all the videos, too. I'm a HUGE Biggie/ JM fan.

reply

We believe you.. but the point being.. When lil cease was 14, he didn't look like a pre-pubescent 10 year old.

I'm glad you like biggie, but this movie sucked.

reply

Go easy bro, don't you know who that was? Muthafckin 50 Cent!

Paper... snow.... A GHOST!!

I thought the same thing. Everytime I saw Marc John Jeffries (Losing Isaiah), I was like whoa, this is terrible casting he looks wayyy too young. And on top of that every line sounded so stupid coming out of his mouth. Awful.

reply

whatever, the actor who pplayed cease was like 16 when he filmed the movie. So...that's good enough...doesn't matter how old he looked...some people look younger than they are...ever think about that...

Worth dying for. Worth killing for. Worth going to hell for. Amen.""
