RIP: Don Cornelius

"We've been in discussions with several people about getting a movie off the ground. It wouldn't be the 'Soul Train' dance show, it would be more of a biographical look at the project...It's going to be about some of the things that really happened on the show." --- In a 2010 interview with The Times, the creator and host of "Soul Train" revealed that he's preparing to produce a behind the scenes movie project from the hit show. The nationally syndicated show was televised for 35 years and ceased production in 2006. At around 4:00a.m this morning, a family member found Don Cornelius bleeding from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head at his home in California. After a rush to the hospital, Don was pronounced dead; he was 75 years old.
