Cardi B Gives First Look At 'Hustlers' Movie Character Diamond

Rapper Cardi B is ready to reveal a bit more about her upcoming movie, "Hustlers." Over the weekend, the artist posted a photo to her Instagram showing off a costume from the new film.

"Y'all ready for DIAMOND to come to a theater near you this fall? HUSTLER MOVIE!" the "Press" rapper wrote in the caption. You can peep the picture here.

"Hustlers" is based off a 2015 article in The Cut, which detailed a group of business-savvy former strip club employees who banded together to pull one over on wealthy Wall Street clients. The film will be set in New York City during the early 2000s, reports People.

Exotic dancing is not unfamiliar to Cardi as she previously worked in that profession before beginning her successful music career, and the rapper has been very vocal about her past. When speaking with Cosmopolitan in 2018, Cardi discussed the many questions she has fielded about her former job.

"People say, ‘Why do you always got to say that you used to be a stripper? We get it.’ Because y’all don’t respect me because of it, and y’all going to respect these strippers from now on," she said. "Just because somebody was a stripper don’t mean they don’t have no brain.”

"Hustlers" will mark Cardi's acting debut, but it will not be her first time working with co-star Jennifer Lopez as the duo put out a 2018 song titled "Dinero." The film, which also stars "Riverdale" actress Lili Reinhart, is set to hit theaters on Sept. 13, so mark your calendars now.
