Bad Bunny is continuing his acting streak, this time joining the cast of the forthcoming film Caught Stealing, alongside Austin Butler and Zoë Kravitz.
The artist born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio appears on the official movie trailer out Wednesday (May 21), where he is seen portraying a Puerto Rican gangster. “Either I get what I want or my pistol talks for me,” he says in a scene with Butler, who portrays Hank Thompson.
Directed by Darren Aronofsky — known for psychological dramas including Requiem for a Dream, Black Swan, and Mother! — the action-packed Caught Stealing follows a couple whose cat-sitting favor for a neighbor goes wrong. “He was just supposed to watch the cat. Now he’s running for his f**king life,” reads the trailer’s description on YouTube.
Benito, who also appears in the upcoming Happy Gilmore 2 as Adam Sandler’s caddie, joins a Caught Stealing cast that also includes Regina King, Liev Schreiber, Vincent D’Onofrio, Griffin Dunne, and Carol Kane. The movie hits theaters on Aug. 29.
The new movie news come on the heels of the Puerto Rican star closing out the 50th season finale of Saturday Night Live with comedy skits and performances of “Nuevayol” and “Perfumito Nuevo,” as well as breaking tour records.
Meanwhile, a recent Billboard report revealed that the star’s Debí Tirar Más Fotos world tour has already sold 2.6 million tickets, breaking sales records around the globe. The “DTMF” singer announced the tour earlier this month, with dates kicking off this November in the Dominican Republic.
