Pharrell Williams’ Michel Gondry-Directed Biopic Permanently Shelved
A Pharrell Williams biopic directed by Michel Gondry has been permanently shelved by Universal, just three months before the film’s May 9 release.

The star-studded cast included fellow Virginia native Missy Elliott, Halle Bailey, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, Anderson .Paak, Janelle Monáe, Tim Meadows, Brian Tyree Henry, Jaboukie Young-White and more.
