Travis Kelce lands first film role in Loose Cannons
NFL star Travis Kelce is reportedly set for his first feature film leading role in upcoming comedy 'Loose Cannons'.
Travis Kelce is reportedly set to star in new comedy 'Loose Cannons'.
The NFL star - who is dating 'Anti-Hero' hitmaker Taylor Swift - is making the jump to Hollywood and may have landed his first big screen acting role.
As reported by Deadline, he is attached to star in Lionsgate's upcoming action comedy.
The movie is currently in development, although it's expected Kelce is some way off filming with the new NFL season set to get started in just a few weeks.
The script for the film has been penned by 'Pixels' writer Timothy Dowling, while John Wick's Chad Stahelski is set to produce via 87Eleven Entertainment, alongside Alex Young and Jason Spitz.
The movie follows the idea that every police precinct in the film's universe has a crazy, rule-breaking officer on the team.
Instead of pairing them with someone more by the books, the film will see two loose cannons forced together in the wake of a precinct merger with no one else wanting to work with them.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the movie will have "tones" of buddy action comedy classics like 'Bad Boys', 'Lethal Weapon' and 'Rush Hour'.
Kelce also will appear alongside Niecy Nash-Betts, Lesley Manville and Courtney B. Vance in Ryan Murphy's upcoming horror drama 'Grostesquerie', which is set to debut on FX in September and focuses on a small community rocked by a series of heinous crimes.
He has also signed onto host Amazon Prime Video series 'Are You Smarter Than A Celebrity?', and served as executive producer on new dark comedy 'My Dead Friend Zoe'.
In 2020, he appeared in one episode of Showtime's 'Moonbase 8', and last year he hosted an episode of 'Saturday NIght Live'.
