Keke Palmer is staying booked and busy!
The Emmy-winning multi-hyphenate is rumored to be circling a big Marvel role, but that's not the only movie she's working on.
Deadline announced today that Palmer is set to star alongside Grammy winning singer SZA in an untitled buddy comedy from TriStar Pictures. Not only that, but the film will be produced by Issa Rae and written and directed by members of her Rap Sh!t crew.
The comedy will be directed by Rap Sh!t director Lawrence Lamont, and Rap Sh!t writer Syreeta Singleton will be handling the script. This will be SZA's acting debut.
According to Deadline, Palmer's recent stint hosting Saturday Night Live with SZA as the musical guest was a factor in SZA deciding on this as her first film projectPalmer is also releasing a new memoir, called Master of Me. She announced the book on social media earlier this week.
"I’m excited to share the next chapter of my ever-growing journey in life with you all," she wrote. "I get real; the pain, the joy, the triumph, I’m not the same person anymore. I look at everything differently and that’s okay, we are the first generation with documented evidence of us growing in real time. The fear and awareness of that can be quite crippling, but I’m not afraid to check the temperature in every era. Last year I was a Big Boss, this year… I’m the Master, of me and you’ve gotta be the master of you. Let’s do it together."
You can currently preorder the book.
