Cardi B played her first role in the upcoming film “Assisted Living”

Cardi B is gone to the big screen.

As indicated by Variety, the “Bodak Yellow” rapper is set to make her starring-role debut in the impending film Assisted Living. The Paramount picture is portrayed as a “raucous comedy” with “tremendous heart,” à la classic comedy films like Sister Act, Mrs. Doubtfire, and Tootsie.

As per the source, Cardi plays a small-time crook who rapidly gets herself “in over her head when a heist goes wrong.” On the run and battling to locate a suitable concealing spot, she disguises herself as an older lady and hangs out in the one spot nobody would think to search for her: the nursing home where her estranged grandma lives.

Despite the fact that Assisted Living will stamp the megastar rapper’s first stint in a featuring role, it’s not her first time acting in a significant film. Most as of late, Cardi scored a minor yet scene-taking part close by Jennifer Lopez, Constance Wu, Keke Palmer, and Lizzo in the widely praised stripper-heist movie coordinated by Lorene Scafaria, Hustlers. The star is no more unusual to TV also, having made her presentation as a social power and afterward burgeoning rapper on the VHI reality show Love & Hip Hop, which she was on from 2015 to 2017, and as an adjudicator on the Netflix music rivalry series chief created by John Legend, Rhythm + Flow.

Assisted Living was supposedly in an offering war the previous spring, with the story dependent on a unique spec content from This Is Us writer Kay Oyegun.
