Kanye West is reportedly working on an upcoming biopic and is looking to Will Ferrell for casting. Sources are saying that he has been talking to the hilarious comedian about being a part of the film and possibly even playing the part of himself.
Kanye has worked with Will Ferrell on the big screen before on Anchorman 2 and has always talked about his admiration for the actor. In a previous interview he expressed how he felt about Will playing his part, “To me, Will Ferrell is royalty. He is one of my personal gods. I would like Will Ferrell to play me in The Kanye West Story. Can you make that happen?”
Hopefully this partnership happens and we will get to see a hilarious Yeezus biopic soon. In the meantime, check out these tweets Ye posted about Will earlier this year.
Will Ferrell has reached walking living breathing god status!
