A first-look image has been released for “White Men Can’t Jump”, a remake of the 1992 film that starred Woody Harrelson and Wesley Snipes.
Released by 20th Century Studios, the image features rapper Jack Harlow and Sinqua Walls. The film will stream exclusively on Disney+ from 19th May 2023.
“White Men Can’t Jump” is a modern remix of the iconic 1992 film that celebrates the streetball hustling culture of Los Angeles. Multi-platinum rap superstar Harlow makes his movie debut as Jeremy, a former star of the game whose injuries stalled his career, and Walls stars as Kamal, once a promising player who derailed his own future in the sport.
Juggling tenuous relationships, financial pressures and serious internal struggles, the two ballers—opposites who are seemingly miles apart—find they might have more in common than they imagined possible.
Directed by Calmatic, the movie also stars Teyana Taylor, Laura Harrier, Vince Staples, Myles Bullock and Lance Reddick. The film is written by Kenya Barris and Doug Hall.
“White Men Can’t Jump” is produced by Kenya Barris and Paul Hall; it’s executive produced by Blake Griffin, Ryan Kalil, Noah Weinstein, Calmatic, Doug Hall, E. Brian Dobbins and James Powers.
