- Lenny Kravitz was one of the names to play Marvin Gaye in an upcoming biopic.
- To get into the role Lenny went to the church Marvin Gaye sang The Lord's Prayer, went to the gym he worked out of and even went to his old apartment.
- Then Lenny quit the role.
- Revealing now that it just didn't feel right, something felt off.
- I can't even tell you what it was. I gracefully bowed out with due respect to the director. Playing Marvin Gaye is a wonderful opportunity but I'm trying to do my thing.
