Kendrick Lamar and Dave Free are joining with South Park co-creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker to produce a live-action comedy for Paramount Pictures.
The untitled film will be written by Wonder Showzen-creator Vernon Chatman and, "will depict the past and present coming to a head when a young black man who is interning as a slave reenactor at a living history museum discovers that his white girlfriend’s ancestors once owned his."
Lamar and Free's involvement comes under their "multilingual, artist-friendly service company" pgLang, with the film slated to begin production this spring.
