Jack Harlow has been a fixture at the top of the charts and now the rapper has his sights on the big screen.
For, the MC has landed the lead role in a remake of 1992 film ‘White Men Can’t Jump’ – which originally starred Wesley Snipes and Woody Harrelson.
Full story below…
It’s been confirmed that the sports comedy is being revived with Charles Kidd II (Calmatic) directing and ‘Black-ish’ creator Kenya Barris and Doug Hall helming the script.
In the film’s new incarnation, Harlow takes on the role Harrelson portrayed in the original. Sources say the star blew producers away with his audition and was quickly awarded the role – which serves as his first movie venture.
‘White Men Can’t Jump’ centers on two basketball hustlers. Initially, at loggerheads with each other (both on and off the court), they eventually team up to conquer a bigger goal.
Casting is underway for Snipes’ role as well as that of Harlow’s girlfriend, who was played by Rosie Perez in the 1992 flick.
The original film was a box office hit, grossing $90.8 million. Time will tell if the reboot enjoys similar success.
