Just a few weeks after starting the beef that became the biggest rap story of 2024 so far, Kendrick Lamar has shared some entirely separate news. That came in the form of a reveal that he’s working on a new musical comedy film. The rapper is collaborating with Trey Parker and Matt Stone, the creators of South Park for the film. Though it’s still pretty early in development fans are already getting excited after hearing the premise for the upcoming film.
“The film follows a young Black man interning as a slave reenactor at a living history museum who discovers that his white girlfriend’s ancestors once owned his” information shared about the film reads. Fans will have to wait a little bit more than a year before they can see the film when it hits the theaters on July 4, 2025. Lamar has a pretty scant history of appearing in films and on television and is almost always playing himself when he does. Check out the announcement for the upcoming musical film below.
