The film will be produced by Denis O'Sullivan ("Bohemian Rhapsody") and Jeff Kalligheri ("I Wanna Dance With Somebody"), who are currently seeking writers and directors. The biopic will feature the group's iconic hits, including "It's So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday," "One Sweet Day," and "On Bended Knee."

Since their 1991 debut, Boyz II Men have become the best-selling R&B group of all time with over 60 million albums sold worldwide. The film promises to showcase their brotherhood, challenges, and the journey that led to their unprecedented success.

Key aspects of the biopic:

  • Will feature their complete music catalog
  • Explores both triumphs and challenges
  • Shows the group's evolution over three decades
  • Highlights their impact on R&B and popular music
  • Documents their rise to international stardom

The group continues to perform, recently selling out three nights at the Hollywood Bowl, marking their first headlining performance at the prestigious venue where they once opened for other acts.
