Jack Harlow is set to making his acting debut in 20th Century’s reboot of the classic sports comedy film, White Men Can’t Jump.
The 23-year-old rapper will take the role of Billy Hoyle, who was famously played by Woody Harrelson. The original, released in 1992, tarred Wesley Snipes and Rosie Perez, and followed two rival street basketball players who team up to hustle their opponents.
Deadline reports Calmatic is directing a script by Kenya Barris and Doug Hall. Barris and his Khalabo Ink Society banner are producing. Blake Griffin, Ryan Kalil and Noah Weinstein are executive producing through their Mortal Media banner. Hall and E. Brian Dobbins will also executive produce.
Jack Harlow, who is hot off the release of his “Nail Tech” single and collaborating with Kanye on Donda 2, recently showed off his basketball skills during the NBA All-Star Celebrity game.
