Ludacris To Skip Day In Atlanta

Movies
Paramount Pictures and MTV Films have teamed with Chris Bridges, or commonly known as rapper Ludacris, and Original Film to develop a comedic feature film around the rap star tentatively titled "Skip Day," which Phil Bowman will write, reports Hollwood Reporter.

Ludacris pitched the idea for himself to star in and executive produce as well as contribute to the film's soundtrack. "Skip" is described as "House Party" meets "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" set in Atlanta.

It's about a high school teenager (Ludacris) and his buddy, who are transferred from an inner-city school to an uptight suburban prep school where they turn things upside down in their quest to initiate a skip day among the senior students. At the same time, the principal is on to them, and they try to elude him in accomplishing their goal.

Ludacris has previously appeared in cameos in "The Wash" and is to appear in "The Bros."
