Kendrick Lamar has been in the new quite a bit lately, with his alleged feud with Drake and J.Cole. Now, he is shifting the focus away from his music with the announcement of his live-action comedy film with South Park co-creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone. Alongside Dave Free as well, the new live-action comedy is receiving a summer release date, later next year.
Set to be distributed by Paramount Pictures, the live-action comedy is written by Vernon Chatman. The studio has yet to share what the script is about and what the extent of Lamar's involvement with the project is. In a statement from Paramount CEO Brian Robbins, he said, "This script is one of the funniest and most original scripts we've ever read and it's certain to create some fireworks." Lamar and his PGLang partner Free are slated to produce the project with Stone and Parker. The two launched their company in 2020 and have curated a selection of chart-topping tracks.
The comedy live-action faces a lot of competition this summer, from the release of Jurassic World 4 to James Gunn's Superman. The live-action comedy film does not have a title known to the public just yet and is set to release on July 4, 2025. Stay tuned for more information.
