Fat Cat up close

Lorenzo "Fat Cat" Nochols




What made you want acquired the Fat Cat script?


• Cat’s impact has had a long reaching ripple effect. There isn’t a person in this country who wasn’t impacted by the crack era and the laws put in place, either directly or indirectly through it’s influence in pop culture/hip hop, and Fat Cat is the personification of that era and all it entailed. It’s an important and relevant story that needs to be told. Cat defined an area and era.


What makes the script different from what has already been published/ from what everybody knows?

• The script takes you back- long before Cat’s name had a notorious ring to it. Back to his childhood, back to the things that really impacted him. Above and beyond the streets, above and beyond anything that can be captured in pop culture. The script is Cat’s truth.


What scene stands out to you most?

• The scene that stands out most to me, the scene that struck me the hardest, was the scene where he retaliated against a neighborhood bully. With the backing of every kid on the block he took back what was his. He divided and conquered, like any true leader.

Why are you reaching out to the hip hop community?

• We are reaching out because this story has been kept alive through music, books, documentaries and articles in large part to the success of hip hop notables like 50 Cent and Nas who both hail from Queens. It's also my hope and intention to involve talent from the hip hop community. I'd like them to see this as "their" project.


What Other Projects are you working on?

• Other People’s Money written by Paul Dawson. It is a completely different genera with totally different considerations than the Fat Cat project.

It’s about a white collar criminal who attempts to flee with his last $25m but is being pursued by a series of hit-men and two dedicated organized crime detectives. We brought together a truly talent group of people who it has been a pleasure to work with.
