Travis Scott Set to Executive Produce DJ Screw Biopic With Columbia Pictures

Columbia Pictures plans to release a biopic on DJ Screw, with Travis Scott serving as the producer.

November 16 will mark 22 years since DJ Screw passed away.

The biopic will be about the Screwed Up Click leader who made a name for himself in Houston by selling mixtapes and his lean-inspired sound in the 90s.

Under the leadership of Vice President Maia Eyre, Travis Scott will executive produce alongside director Isaac Yowman.

DJ Screw’s sister Michelle Wheeler told the Deadline that “continuing the legacy of my brother is most important.”

She said, “The process honestly has been exciting.  I’m like, wow, we’re really about to make a movie.  Nearly a dozen film directors and producers had approached us over the years, but this was the first time I actually felt fully comfortable.  I’m very thankful for Sony and Travis being on this journey with us, helping keep my brother Screw’s legacy going.”

According to Yowman, Scott’s involvement with the project came about “When I went up to the LA office with my bro Earl, and the entire Cactus Jack team was there.  Trav and I talked for over an hour about how epic this could be… bouncing ideas.”

He said, “The love for Screw was mutual, and he told me I had his full support.  We were both raised in Mo.  City, so this means that much more to have him be a part.”

Yowman continued, “There’s been so much work done over the last year.  The studio and I, alongside Travis’s team, have been connecting with writers — identifying the best way to tell this story on paper.  Screw is a music icon.  In the South, he’s like a God, so there’s a level of delicacy when tapping into his story.  That noted I’m grateful as hell to have his sister Michelle and brother Charles in my corner as a support system.  I don’t know everything, and there’s so much information out there, so being able to talk to legends like Lil’ Keke, Bun B, and D-Reck and get unbiased perspectives has been helpful with me navigating through the process.”
