Spinning Gold is a new movie about Casablanca Records chief Neil Bogart, and it will feature Wiz Khalifa portraying funk legend George Clinton, Deadline reports. Casablanca released the majority of Parliament’s albums in the ’70s. The movie’s soundtrack will reportedly feature new covers of classic songs from artists portrayed in the film, so get ready for a Wiz Khalifa-fronted version of “Give Up the Funk (Tear the Roof Off the Sucker).” 

The film will also feature Tayla Parx as Donna Summer, Ledisi as Gladys Knight, and Jason Derulo as Ronald Isley. The movie stars Jeremy Jordan as Bogart; Justin Timberlake was previously attached to play that role. Production on the movie is underway.
