Rap legend Busta Rhymes will be on the big screen soon as he was cast to be part of the ‘Naked Gun’ reboot. Rhymes will be joining the cast and starring alongside WWE undisputed champion Cody Rhodes, Liza Koshy, Pamela Anderson, Danny Huston, Walter Hauser, Liam Neeson, and more.

‘Naked Gun’ will be the rapper’s first film in nearly a decade. The last time he was seen onscreen was in the 2016 Nick Cannon directed movie ‘King of the Dancehall’. According to HotNewHipHop.com, the rapper noted that working with stars like Samuel L. Jackson and Sean Connery helped to hone his craft.

"Not only do you respect your elders but you respect those you learn from," he explained.
