Eazy-E's son says there's a "high probability" he'll play his ffather in an upcoming Hollywood movie about the legendary rap group N.W.A., saying "I'm the perfect man for the role."

Eric Wright Jr. — aka Lil' Eazy-E — who told TMZ he's "very excited" that New Line Cinema is moving forward with the flick … which is set to be produced by Eazy's former N.W.A. group member Ice Cube.

"Who better to play him in the N.W.A. days?" Lil' Eazy said, adding, "Like father, like son — no makeup needed."

The 27-year-old — who's trained with an acting coach in the past — tells us he's already been in contact with the movie producers … but he has yet to formally audition for the gig.

Wright was only 11 years old when Eazy died back in 1995 — but he tells us, "I know I'm just like my dad."
