Offset's getting his feet in the world of acting.

While the Migos have been teasing the arrival of Culture III, there appears to be even more for each one of the members individually. Quavo has been getting ready for Street Bud's takeover while Takeoff recently made a stand-out appearance on Lil Wayne's Funeral. Offset, on the other hand, has been diving deeper into ventures outside of music including acting. CBS announced that he'd be making an appearance on this week's episode of NCIS: Los Angeles while also revealing the Migos member would be debuting a new solo track called, "Danger."

The episode of NCIS: Los Angeles is called "Alsiyadun" with Offset depicting the character of Kadri Kashan Khan, "an undercover CIA Officer working for years in the Sinai Peninsula to embed himself with the local tribes by smuggling contraband so that he can monitoring terrorist and weapons movements in that region."

LL Cool J, who stars in the show, explained that Offset initially reached out to get involved with the show. For LL, it was important that Offset, who dons a fake beard in the episode, wasn't typecasted. Offset also stated that, much like in rap, he does his own stunts.

"I didn't want to come into acting and be put in this category of, you can be the bad guy all the time," he said. "I wanted to be able to show that I can do anything someone sets in front of me."
