Cardi B is set to make her film debut in Hustlers.

The 26-year-old rapper has joined the cast of the upcoming adaptation of the New York magazine article “Hustlers at Scores” alongside Julia Stiles, Keke Palmer and Lili Reinhart.


The film from STX Entertainment — also starring Jennifer Lopez and Constance Wu — takes place in the late 2000s in New York City in the wake of the financial crisis and will follow a group of former strippers who plot to steal tens of thousands of dollars from their wealthy Wall Street clients.

Lorene Scafaria will oversee the project and penned the script based on the 2015 article by Jessica Pressler. Shooting will begin in New York City later this week with former stripper Cardi playing one of the erotic dancers.


Adam Fogelson, chairman of STXfilms, said in a statement, “We could not have asked for a more exciting or talented lineup of performers to join our cast.”

Yesterday Cardi shared her excitement for the upcoming project on Instagram by reposting the Deadline article. She captioned the photo, “To a theater near you (sic)”
