In case you were wondering, Romeo Miller is all grown up. The 24-year-old rapper/actor will prove this once and for all in his new leading role in the upcoming stripper flick Chocolate City.
Miller is set to play Devin, a college student who has a difficult time staying financially afloat. He eventually meets the owner of a male strip club and is convinced to perform during amateur night. Despite his religious upbringing, Devin quickly gets swept up in the lifestyle of fast money and women.
As previously reported, Michael Jai White will play the owner of the strip club and Tyson Beckford will play the club’s former star who gets pushed to the side as Devin takes the spotlight. Newcomer Eurika Pratts (Gang of Roses 2) will play Miller’s love interest.
