Straight Outta Compton will hit theaters on August 14, 2015, with F. Gary Gray (Friday, Set It Off) directing.

In that photo you see, clockwise from top left, producer Ice Cube, director F. Gary Gray, producer Dr. Dre, Corey Hawkins (Dr. Dre), Jason Mitchell (Eazy-E) and O’Shea Jackson Jr. (Ice Cube).

Here’s the official info from Universal:
In the mid-1980s, the streets of Compton, California, were some of the most dangerous in the country. When five young men translated their experiences growing up into brutally honest music that rebelled against abusive authority, they gave an explosive voice to a silenced generation. Following the meteoric rise and fall of N.W.A., STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON tells the astonishing story of how these youngsters revolutionized music and pop culture forever the moment they told the world the truth about life in the hood and ignited a cultural war.

Starring O’Shea Jackson Jr., Corey Hawkins and Jason Mitchell as Ice Cube, Dr. Dre and Eazy-E, STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON is directed by F. Gary Gray (Friday, Set It Off, The Italian Job). The drama is produced by original N.W.A. members Ice Cube and Dr. Dre, who are joined by fellow producers Matt Alvarez and Tomica Woods-Wright. Will Packer serves as executive producer of the film alongside Gray.

Glad you enjoyed it mate,

Really can't wait to watch it. Gona be sik!

Been listening to loads of NWA and 2001 recently (well im always listening to 2001)
 
Straight Outta Compton is a very solid movie with great performances by relatively unknown actors. F Gary Gary did a great job recapping roughly 10 years of history in 2 ½ hours. The story and characters of Eazy E, Dr Dre and Ice Cube were all interesting and different in the own way and the actors portraying them did a phenomenal job.

While this movie is long, it could definitely benefit from an even longer running time. The actual part where they were all together being N.W.A. was the best and ‘origins’ of famous songs and cameos were really fun. This was a great movie, but I wish the darker sides of Dr Dre and Ice Cube were explored more with Ice Cube getting a more fleshed out ending. This is definitely one of the best bio pic movies in recent memory and if you love or even like rap, you definitely need to see this movie.

Side note: I was lucky enough to randomly sit next to Elizabeth Olsen at the theater. She seemed to enjoy the movie too. I’ll toss common sense and technicalities aside and call it a movie date with her J

Supposedly the original cut of the film was 3hrs 30 min, so hopefully we will get a lot more on the blu release. While I think all the actors did a great job, Jason Mitchell who played Easy-E, performance definitely was my favorite.
 
Best movie of the summer! They packed in so much music and history. Hard to believe this was 2.5 hours, because I would have watched for another hour or two. So great seeing all of the legends.
