2014-2015 has been very good to one of Hip-Hop’s most conscious & politically correct emcees, Common. After playing a major role in the recent Martin Luther King, Jr. biopic, “Selma” & winning countless pivotal awards for his progressive contributions, Common will hit the big screen yet again for another movie appearance. Common will be apart of the third installment to the popular Ice Cube film, “Barbershop”.
Deadline reports:
Common has committed to star in the ensemble cast of Barbershop 3, the MGM sequel that New Line will distribute. He joins Ice Cube and Cedric the Entertainer, who are reprising, and The Best Man franchise director Malcolm D. Lee, who’s helming. Cube Vision is producing and MGM will run production. Bob Teitel and George Tillman Jr of State Street Pictures are the lead producers. The script is by Kenya Barris and Tracy Oliver.
