I remember that when it first broke that Lenny might play Marvin, Marvin Gaye III, a former classmate of Kravitz, ask that he not be involved. Something has now changed, as the project that was blasted for focusing on a tough time in Marvin’s life, now has the backing of the adopted son of Marvin.
Deadline Hollywood says the film focuses on the time Gaye spent in Europe in the early 1980s, when the soul singer attempted to get his addictions under control and career back on track with the help of British music promoter Freddy Cousaert.
