”Pineapple Express” star Danny McBride recently spoke with the British newspaper and revealed, that ”Kanye asked me to play him in a movie of his life,” McBride said while laughing at the memory. “That was a pretty stunning phone call to get. I don’t know why he wanted me to do it. Maybe that sense of ego I’m able to portray? I have no clue.”
According to McBride, the rapper even flew down to visit his family and watched his young son play Fortnite while talking about plans for the possible West biopic, which would probably cover his rise to fame, marriage to reality star Kim Kardashian, his support of President Donald Trump and more:
“That was a pretty incredible day,” McBride said. “Maybe someday we’ll make the film. Who knows?”
While it’s unclear when this Biopic will happen, it doesn’t look like it will be any time soon as McBride is in the UK for the launch of his third HBO sitcom, The Righteous Gemstones!
