If it feels like we've just been talking about Slice, a.k.a. that movie where Chance the Rapper is said to play a werewolf, it's because that's all we've been able to do. As far back as the summer of 2015, it was known that Chance was starring in a murder-mystery surrounding the death of a pizza delivery guy. There was a time when it was thought that the movie, Slice, would just be a short, but it's in fact a full-length feature film, and today, A24 dropped the long-awaited trailer.
In the film, Chance plays Dax Lycander, who appears to be wanted by the police. Zazie Beetz, of Atlanta and Deadpool 2 fame, stars in the film as well, and is on the hunt for the killer of her pizza shop co-worker. Oh, and the pizza shop she works at was built on the gateway to hell. Whatever's going on, it looks like Zazie and Chance are both trying to figure out whodunnit.
We only get a couple words of dialogue from Chance, but just from the trailer we see that this film is as campy and hilarious as it'll be bloody. It also features Joe Keery (Steve Harrington from Stranger Things), and there's even an appearance from Hannibal Buress. This will be Chance's film debut, and the first feature film for director Austin Vesely, who previously worked on the videos of Chance's "Angels" and "Sunday Candy."
Check out the full trailer for Slice up above; there's no release date currently, but it does say "THIS FALL," so we'll see where it ends up.
