It’s been 15 years since Eminem’s 8 Mile got out, and now he’s signed on another hip-hop film.
The Detroit MC is producing Bodied, an upcoming satirical film about the art of battle rap. Joseph Kahn is signed as a director. Kahn built a name for himself directing music videos for Taylor Swift, Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, Eminem, and many others.
See the trailer for Bodied in the tweet posted by TIFF:
