Scott Mescudi, better known as singer-songwriter, producer Kid Cudi has added 2 new roles to his acting resumé: an indie comedy titled Goodbye World, starring Adrian Grenier, and an indie thriller titled Tacoma, with Patricia Clarkson.
Goodbye World just wrapped principal photography; the story follows a group of college friends who reunite in a remote Northern California town as civilization collapses. Kid Cudi plays one of the college friends, an eccentric computer hacker. He’s joined by a couple (Adrian Grenier, Kerry Bishe) whose off-the-grid home becomes the gathering place for the eclectic group, a disgraced yet idealistic Washington, D.C., insider (Gaby Hoffman), and a formerly imprisoned radical activist (Mark Webber).
Last month, Kid Cudi was cast in an indie thriller titled Tacoma – described as a feature length narrative thriller about a real estate agent who wanted to be a dancer. Cudi will be playing a character named Yanni who is the lover of a character named Cynthia (who is said to be played by Patricia Clarkson).
Tacoma is currently in pre-production.
The 2 projects will mark Kid Cudi’s entry into big screen/feature film acting; having gained some acting experience with a recurring role on HBO’s How to Make It in America.
