“He did a phenomenal job,” she says of Mitchell. “I’m so incredibly proud. All my life I’ve been hearing these stories. Jason is everything I imagined [my father] to be … I really felt like I was watching him on the screen.”

NBCNews reports that E.B.’s resemblance to her father is so strong that “when “Rock the Bells” [music festival] wanted to create a hologram of my dad, they used my face,” E.B.says.

In a recent interview with City Pages, E.B. said Dr. Dre, Ice Cube and director F. Gary Gray did a “good job” focusing on the ‘brotherhood’ of the band. However, in a series of tweets posted over the weekend, she revealed that a lot of her father’s story isn’t mentioned in the movie.
