French Montana and Lil Boosie Announce Future Movie Roles [WATCH]

It is essentially a rite of passage for hip-hop artists to have a cameo or involvement in a major motion picture to elevate their careers. Hip-hop is a visual genre by nature, and that is not exclusive to solely creative album covers these days.

French Montana and Lil Boosie agree with this sentiment and recently announced that they will be acting in movies as the new year continues.

As told in a BET interview feature, French Montana spoke about his plans for 2015, saying, "Definitely next year (2015) [I'm] on the acting tip. I came in on the Cocaine set of DVDs. I just love the visuals, so I definitely went to L.A. [and] I'm definitely trying to put something together as far as a movie. I've got a movie called Respect the Shooter coming out early next year."

Lil Boosie is also joining the fun and discussed his potential involvement in filming an autobiographical film to accompany his forthcoming album, Touch Down 2 Cause Hell.

Lil Boosie told BET, "In 2015 you can expect the album, you can expect the movie. I'm shooting my life story movie, it's crazy."

The rapper has also referred to his idea for Boosie the Movie in the past, mentioning that in addition to song-writing, he writes his own films as well.

"Well, I wrote my own movie, Boosie the Movie. I might shop it, but I'm probably gonna get my own money and do it myself and I'm gonna try to put it in theaters cause it ain't no movie like this movie. This the real life story," he confirmed.

French Montana has had several appearances on the small screen himself, appearing on Kourtney & Khloé Take the Hamptons, and is ready to break from reality TV appearances and focus on something larger in 2015. His breakup with Khloé Kardashian had seen pressure in the media and from the family alike, with some questioning his motives for dating the reality TV star in the first place. Hopefully, his acting on the big screen will be under less scrutiny.
