Kid Cudi has been cast in the ‘Bill & Ted’ reboot.
The 35-year-old rapper – who has sold more than 16 million records as a solo artist – is set to star alongside Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter in the much-anticipated reboot movie, which is slated for release in 2020.
Cudi’s casting has already been officially confirmed, although his role has not yet been publicly revealed.
In an exchange on Twitter, Alex – who plays the part of Bill S. Preston, Esq in the comedy series – wrote: “@KidCudi dude. It’s been over five years since you and I talked about you being part of this movie. Thanks for your patience :)”
And Cudi replied:
