The musician made the announcement on social media, posting images of himself in character and revealing that the film will begin shooting in 2027. “For years people have asked me about playing Jean Michel Basquiat in a film,” he wrote.

“But no project actually came to be. This year, I finally said fuck it, ima write it myself.

Did a wardrobe test, got a wig made (this isnt the final just a rough, trust me we gon get it perfect). But I wanted to tease what we been cooking a bit.” Related Stories ‘24 Jump Street,’ Hugh Jackman’s ‘Treasure Island’ Remake Get Holiday 2027 Release Dates Cudi opened up about the process of writing the film, calling it a “challenge” but a “welcomed one.” “A lot of research, books, talks with people that knew him,” he continued.

“This film will be a love letter to Jean, the 80s and NY city. Jean has inspired me all through out my career, and it will be the biggest honor to tell his story in a way we haven’t seen before.

This ones for all those dreamers out there.” Popular on Variety Cudi has been building his acting portfolio over the years, appearing as himself in “Bill & Ted Face the Music” and “House Party” and taking on roles in Ti West’s “X,” “Pearl” and “MaXXXine.” He will make his feature directorial debut with “Doe,” which began production in Los Angeles earlier this year, and will sit in the director’s chair for the horror thriller “Wrong Number,” in which he will star opposite Barbie Ferreira.

A film about Basquiat was previously in the works from director Kwame Kwei-Armah. “The Collaboration,” adapted from a 2022 stage play, starred Paul Bettany and Jeremy Pop as Andy Warhol and Basquiat.
