LaKeith Stanfield just landed a role in another project! He joins the cast of I Love Boosters, the second movie by Boots Riley. Besides Stanfield, the film features actors Keke Palmer, Naomi Ackie, and Demi Moore, Deadline reports.
I Love Boosters follows a group of shoplifters who target a cutthroat fashion maven. Just as it’s Riley’s second film, it’s also his second collaboration with LaKeith Stanfield, who had the lead role in his first movie, the 2018 sci-fi black comedy Sorry to Bother You, co-starring Tessa Thompson, Jermaine Fowler, and Omari Hardwick.
Stanfield has kept a low profile this year, with his only work being voice work on a documentary about Ernest Cole. However, it’s not like he hasn’t been busy! In addition to I Love Boosters, his film Play Dirty with Mark Wahlberg just went into post-production, and he’s currently filming Lear Rex, based on Shakespeare’s King Lear, and Die, My Love, a dark comedy horror film with Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson.
Given that Sorry to Bother You was a critical success and overall an amazing movie, it’s safe to say I Love Boosters will be worth checking out, don’t you think?
