US Rapper Childish Gambino, AKA Donald Glover (his birth name) in the acting world, has released the trailer for his upcoming project ‘Atlanta’.
Donald Glover is best known for his work on-and-off screen having scripted episodes of US comedy ’30Rock,’ as well as landing roles in movies ‘The Martian,’ ‘The Lazarus Effect’ and ‘Magic Mike XXL.’ He’s even been cast for the upcoming 2017 movie ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming.’ His latest project is FX series ‘Atlanta,’ a new show written and exec-produced by Donald himself, which is set to reach us in September. He sure is a busy man!
Donald hasn’t forgotten his roots, with the show being based on the rap scene of his birthplace, Atlanta, where he plays a manager ‘Earn Marks’, who’s supporting his young cousin, Alfred, and his struggles while trying to make a break in the rap business.
The promo describes the show, “Starring and created by Donald Glover, Atlanta revolves around two cousins on their way up through the Atlanta rap scene whose opposing views on art versus commerce, success and race will make their quest anything but easy.”
Judging by the trailer the show will definitely be worth a watch, this guy is a genius! Much love.
