Romeo lands leading role in stripper flick
Urban stripper flick Chocolate City has found its leading man in former Nickelodeon star and No Limit Records recording artist Lil Romeo, aka Romeo Miller.
Last week, Michael Jai White and Tyson Beckford revealed that they’ll be stripping down for the upcoming exotic-dancing themed movie.
Miller has signed on to play “Devin, a young college student who’s lured into the world of male exotic dancing to pay the bills. Newcomer Eurika Pratts (Gang of Roses 2, Basketball Girlfriend) has also been cast as Carmen, the girlfriend whose relationship with Devin becomes strained by his new career,” Deadline reports.
With the Jean-Claude La Marre (Color of the Cross) indie project slated to begin filming at the end of June, we anticipate a mid-2015 release.
Miller’s film credits include Jessica Alba’s Honey, Jumping the Broom, and Tyler Perry’s Madea’s Witness Protection. Miller also starred in his own Nickelodeon show, “Romeo!”
