Cardi B has officially landed her first feature film role. The Atlantic Records artist will star in Hustlers, a revenge flick that tells the true story of a group of ex-strippers who join forces to take down their Wall Street clients.
The Grammy Award winner’s castmates include Jennifer Lopez, Crazy Rich Asians star Constance Wu, Keke Palmer, Riverdale‘s Lili Reinhart, Julia Stiles and Mercedes Ruehl. Written and directed by Lorene Scafaria, the movie is inspired by a 2015 New York Magazine article.
“I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to work with this dynamic group of women,” Scafaria told Deadline. “We’re grateful to have assembled such a powerhouse cast and can’t wait to start filming at the end of the week.”
According to Deadline, shooting will begin on Friday (March 22) in New York City. The film is being co-produced by J. Lo, STXfilms, Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas and Benny Medina.
Cardi’s never been one to shy away from discussing her previous stripping career, which makes Hustlers a fitting film debut. The rap superstar still supports strippers and strip clubs on a frequent basis.
Hustlers will mark Cardi’s second time working with Jennifer Lopez. Last year, the two collaborated on a single with DJ Khaled.

I can see her management team now saying, “Cardi, your first opportunity should show some diversity to the roles you might be able to play in the future.”
Cardi responds, “Wait, what? They want me to play a ho/stripper… I’m that b*tch, okkkkkuuurrr.”

Enigma bizzy bone…offset cardi b diss…out now
They’re all cool, but this movie sounds awful
Already sounds like it’ll be the worst movie of all time. Cardi B is one of the most irritating human beings on the entire earth. I don’t wanna see her act and make random animal noises and squeal for no reason.
You mad.
There is definitely a sex scene. Cant wait to see Cardi B’s pussy get penetrated.
If she’s as talented actress as a rapper it will be a big flop.
You should like a bitter hater lol
Thots upon thots
Dang no love for bizzy bone enigma
