According to STV, Reverend Run, DMC and representatives of the estate of the group's third member DJ Jam-Master Jay have met with Hollywood producer Paula Wagner, who produced the films Mission: Impossible and Valkyrie, to discuss developing their story into a musical.
Wagner said: "Run-DMC's lyrics and music are infectious. It's vibrant, it's alive. Who they are and what they did was a culturally defining moment. It embraced everybody. Their rise to fame is innately theatrical. It speaks to everybody."
DJ Jam-Master Jay was murdered in 2002 at the age of 37. The pioneering rap group were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame earlier this year.
