Filmmaker CJ Wallis is currently in the development stage of a documentary honoring the late Mac Miller.
Miller was a celebrated rapper and recording artist before his untimely passing back on September 7, 2017. The rapper died of a fentanyl and cocaine overdose in his Los Angeles home. His death was ruled as an accident by the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner-Coroner. Prior to his death, he dated pop music icon, Ariana Grande.
