Bernie Mac’s daughter, Je’niece McCallough, has expressed her desire for actor Aldis Hodge to portray her late father in an upcoming biopic. Hodge, known for his roles in Leverage and Hidden Figures, has enthusiastically embraced the idea, stating that the opportunity is a high honor given Mac’s daughter’s endorsement.
Mac, a beloved comedian, passed away in August 2008 at the age of 50. Plans for a biopic were confirmed by John Legend’s Get Lifted production company, with McCallough endorsing Hodge as a fitting choice for the role.
