Director Harmony Korine has a thing for oddball rappers. After all, this is the guy who built an entire movie around James Franco’s Riff Raff impersonation. And it look’s like Skinny Guwop is next up. In an interview with GQ, Gucci Mane revealed that he’s working on a new movie with the Spring Breakers director called The Trap.
It’s far from the first time that Gucci has worked with the director. He shot a Supreme ad with Korine while he was still on house arrest and had a role in Breakers. And, of course, Korine did visit the rapper back in late 2015 while he was still incarcerated.
“Harmony is my close friend, so it was easy. He’s super creative. Me and him work good together because we just freestyle sh*t, both of us don’t have no rigid mind state when we bring something to life,” he told the magazine. “I love to act. It was just a great experience being in Spring Breakers, and it was just the beginning.”
The Trap will also star Benecio Del Toro, Al Pacino and James Franco. It will be Gucci’s second film after The Spot, a movie he’s producing and acting in. While we can’t say whether The Spot will be any good, it did give us a newfound appreciation for rhyming the word “orange.”
