Keke Palmer and SZA will soon be sharing the screen again.

On Friday, Sony Pictures revealed that an as-yet-unnamed R-rated comedy featuring a popular duo will be released in cinemas on January 24, 2025. This movie is being directed by Lawrence Lamont for TriStar Pictures and written by Syreeta Singleton. At this time, specifics about the storyline remain undisclosed.

The movie started life within Sony’s CoLab, a past partnership between the studio and ColorCreative aimed at nurturing up-and-coming, multi-cultural screenwriters in creating unique film concepts.

In the past, Keke Palmer served as the host for a 2022 episode of Saturday Night Live, where SZA appeared as the musical act.

In his role, Lamont served as the director for the sitcom “Rap Sh!t,” which was conceived by Rae. Earlier in his career, Singleton penned scripts for “Rap Sh!t” and another popular comedy series, “Insecure.

As a gamer, I’m renowned for my roles in movies like “Nope” and “Hustlers.” My schedule is packed with exciting upcoming projects.

Another one is “Good Fortune,” directed by Aziz Ansari, featuring an all-star cast that includes Seth Rogen and Keanu Reeves. I’m also set to appear in Peacock’s remake of “The Burbs” and have a part in the Kevin Hart comedy titled “The Backup.

For the first time, SZA is embarking on a fresh journey – acting. Right now, she’s basking in the glory of her latest album’s success titled “SOS“. This album has garnered nine Grammy nominations and given birth to chart-topping hits like “Kill Bill” and “Snooze”.
