Mark those calendars because ‘Barbershop’ is back!
April 2016 will serve up the third instalment of the popular franchise, which now has a confirmed title of ‘Barbershop: The Next Cut.’ Check out the first official poster above, which also cements its release window.
Hip-Hop maven Nicki Minaj joins returning names such as Ice Cube, Cedric The Entertainer, and fellow femcee Eve as part of the cast.
The ‘Pink Print’ purveyor will play the sassy Draya – a stylist on the hair salon side of the shop. Ever theatrical, the rapper’s role forms part of a marked foray into the acting world – as Minaj is also gearing up to star in an ABC sitcom.
As for Barbershop, all eyes will be on whether its third round, which is being produced by New Line, will significantly add to the box office total for the franchise (which, between its two released movies, has grossed $140 million worldwide).
UPDATE: Watch the first trailer below…
I’ll be the first one who’s perched in the front row at the cinema. Wouldn’t miss my mom’s slayage for anything in the world.
Adele can’t wait for Rihanna’s album, supposedly

Go post that on the previous Adele post you dumbass
Yezzz Frank Ocean come back baby!!!
But why weren’t you perched front row at one of her tours?
@Kiii sis the stalking will have to stop at some point huney. I’ve been paying you dust and I intend to keep it that way.
But this bish Micki Minaj can’t act fa sheed & it shows even in this preview
Why is EVE in the back and Nicki is in the front when Eve is an original. The shade the shade!
lmao My sentiments exactly when I first saw the poster. But hey.. “You play the back, B1tch IM IN THE FRONT!!!!”
Same thing i said id be pissed if I were eve
i can’t wait to watch it.
The ultimate reach .making a legend stand behind like a waiter while Nicki sits because she is relevant now
The ultimate reach is you referring to Eve as a legend. Icon perhaps. But legend..I think NOT sis.
I wouldn’t even call Eve an icon. She was a popular rapper of her day and may have one or two songs that will stand the test of times, but an “icon” is pushing it. That’s like calling Karyn White is an icon.
Karyn White? lol You’re showing your age sis
One more crappy movie coming? 🙂
This year has been really poor for films, when it comes to both blockbusters and smaller films. Awards season looks drier then in 2012, 2013 and 2014, and the blockbusters we´ve got, despite all the hype around 2015, were mediocre, except for the exceptional Mad Max Fury Road (The Martian was really good too). There´s only the last Hunger Games and Star Wars to save a little bit more the year.
OMG! That beginning scene in “The Martian” when he uses that staple gun to close the wound that he received from having that antenna stuck inside of him made me CRINGE! I had to turn my face. I just couldn’t do it!! It was beyond showing too much.
Nicki looks cheap and tacky as usual. Nobody’s checking for another Barbershop
But U just checked AND channeled
Yall just can’t take tha kid. lmao And it’s oh so fine. Look at all y’all negative comments. Its pathetic
Go nicki!
LOL why? we did not need another barbershop movie it’s so 2005 bye!
Can’t wait to see this! I think Nicki can act but I hope she’ll take a more serious role next and not these stereotypical roles. Still it’s cool to see her, Eve, Cube, and Common on the same screen. Love seeing an all black cast.
So even for a movie role Nicki still has to wear belly shirts and leggings? Sad.
Dang! Nicki reduced Eve to supporting actress!
