A true crime documentary chronicling the murder trial of Duane "Keffe D" Davis for the 1996 shooting of West Coast rap icon 2Pac (Tupac Shakur) is in development. Marian Mohamed, an experienced director, will helm the feature-length film, which aims to provide a voice for the grieving family and invite viewers to emotionally connect with the story.
The documentary, set to air on Sky Documentaries and NOW beginning in 2027, will feature insights from Shakur's entourage, family members, and never-before-seen footage related to the infamous crime.

The untitled documentary will offer a comprehensive look at the unsolved case, drawing viewers into the emotional turmoil experienced by those involved and shedding light on the enduring mystery surrounding the rapper's death.
