Jamie Foxx is set to produce a limited series about Marvin Gaye. While there’s been many attempts to make a Marvin Gaye biopic in the past, this is the first one to be blessed by the singer’s family. “This project will be a powerful and definitive telling of Marvin Gaye’s life story,” says Marvin’s son, Marvin Gaye III, who also also an executive producer on the new project.

Speaking on the legendary Motown singer’s legacy, Foxx says: “I’ve been a huge fan my whole life. His brilliance in music unparalleled. Marvin Gaye’s story has always fascinated me.”

That “She said she want some Marvin Gaye, some Luther Vandross, a little Anita” line on Kanye West’s “Slow Jamz” seems to have come full circle.
