Ice Cube was on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" last night to discuss his upcoming N.W.A. film, entitled "Straight Outta Compton." Having "just wrapped principle photography," Cube was clearly amped on the prospect of the upcoming film, which stars his son as a younger version of himself.

"It was like 'Back To The Future'," Cube said of watching his son and the other actors recreate scenes from his life. As it stands now, the film is coming out in August 2015 (according to Dr. Dre), and Paul Giamatti is slated to play the group's infamous manager, Jerry Heller.

Stay tuned for a trailer.
