Usher is taking his talents back to the big screen to portray a famous boxer in a upcoming biopic.
The “Climax” crooner shared with BBC earlier this week that he’s taking on the role of Sugar Ray Leonard in a movie depicting his life.
Speaking about the role, Usher had this to say, ”I’m actually in preparation for a very incredible role. I’m in preparation later this year to play the role of Sugar Ray Leonard in a boxing film and it’s going to be incredible. This is going to be an incredible movie – in time an incredible story – and I’m really looking forward to that.”
He later added, ”If you guys see me running around London that’s what it is. If you see me in the corners boxing. I’m doing that while working on this album.”
As previously reported, Usher is said to be working on his next project titled, The Shanertance, which will hit stores this spring.
