Nick Cannon was interviewed on TMZ Live and he alludes to maybe playing comedian Richard Pryor in biopic.

Check out the details below.

Actor/comedian Nick Cannon did everything but say the words … he’s playing Richard Pryor in an upcoming biopic.

Cannon was a guest on “TMZ Live” Wednesday, where he said the movie was not yet in production and he didn’t want to jinx it. That sounds like the movie is well on its way to getting to production and being made to me!

Nick Cannon said he’s been meeting with director Lee Daniels about the project and has been doing all sorts of things to get ready … I am sure this includes watching old movies, stand up tapes, and listening to those old school comedy albums. He is growing out his hair and jokes about chain-smoking.

Nick even posted a photo on Instagram … a side-by-side of him and Pryor. This movie has been in the works for ages. There have been tons of comedians slated to play the iconic role of Richard Pryor on-screen including Eddie Murphy and Mike Epps.

Do you think Nick Cannon has the acting chops to take on the role of Richard Pryor?
