Lil Yachty is reportedly developing a heist movie based on the Uno card game
The film will take place “in the underground hip hop world of Atlanta.”
Lil Yachty is currently negotiating to star in an adaptation of the popular Mattel card game Uno, according to a Variety report. The film will — somehow — be an action heist caper with Atlanta's "underground hip hop world" as the setting.
“I’m so excited to be part of this film with Mattel,” Yachty said in a statement obtained by Variety. “I played Uno as a kid and still do today, so to spin that into a movie based on the Atlanta hip hop scene I came out of is really special. It hits close to home for me.”
Yachty is credited as a producer on the film, along with Brian Sher, Kevin “Coach K” Lee, and Pierre “P” Thomas of Quality Control, Yachty's label. Marcy Kelly handled the screenplay for the film, which I won't be watching unless it's R-rated and full of graphic violence.
