It looks like Andre 3000 is taking his talents to the small screen. According to Variety, the Outkast member has been tapped as a co-star on season 2 of ABC's crime drama series “American Crime”.
Andre will reportedly play the part of a father, Michael Lacroix, whose teenager is suspected of the season's central crime. He will star opposite of Regina King.
With the show currently in production, Andre is reuniting with his “All Is By My Side” director John Ridley and the “American Crime” creator for season two of the ABC series. Here’s what Ridley had to say about working with Three Stacks:
“Personally, I couldn’t be more excited than to work again with Andre. He is an amazing individual, a true artist, and ‘All Is by My Side’ is one of the reasons I was given the reins on ‘American Crime.’ Folks at ABC were absolutely moved by Andre’s performance in the film, and by the overall language of cinema we used in telling the story. It’s fair to say ‘American Crime’ might not exist were it not for our previous collaboration.”
