According to a website, a film about the rise of Bob Marley and the Wailers is being filmed!

It has been reported that a film about the international rise of reggae legend Bob Marley and his band The Wailers is in production, according to website indiewire.com. Titled "Buffalo Soldiers" - the name of one of the king's hits - the film will be distributed by Mandalay Pictures. Signing the project are producer Cathy Schulman and writer Barry Morrow, known for the feature film "Rain Man". According to Indie Wire, the film will show Bob Marley and the band The Wailers emerging from the ghettos of Trenchtown in the 1960s, to stardom a decade later. There are no details about the production such as budget or cast, nor is it known whether the Marley family is sponsoring the project in any way. There were rumors that acclaimed director Martin Scorsese was involved with "Buffalo Soldiers," but nothing has been confirmed. Two years ago, Kevin MacDonald made the acclaimed documentary "MARLEY", adding to the list of films about the king. This fact raised a question: What is there about King Bob Marley that still needs to be filmed? Let's hope that something really new and of quality is produced.
