Posted by Kid Cudi has earned another role to add to his film resume. A24 released a trailer to the upcoming horror movie X on Wednesday (January 12) which finds Cudder playing the role of a porn star in the late 1970s.
Directed by Ti West, a group of filmmakers heads to a barren area in Texas to shoot an adult film and the house they’re staying at — of course — becomes haunted and members begin dropping one by one in extremely gory fashion.
