Quavo leder rollbesättningen i kommande filmen Takeover

Quavo spelar Guy Miller i actionthrillern Takeover, som får biografpremiär den 8 maj. Filmen följer en exfånge som dras tillbaka in i Atlantas undre värld för att rädda sin familj bland rivaliserande gäng och polisen. Den innehåller ett postumt framträdande av den avlidne Migos-medlemmen Takeoff och använder hybridanimationsteknik.

Quavo, känd från rapgruppen Migos, tar sig an sin mest framträdande skådespelarroll hittills i Takeover, regisserad av Grzegorz Jonkajtys. I filmen spelar Quavo Guy Miller, en före detta gatuserielägn och exfånge som söker försoning efter fängelsetiden. Nyss ute ur fängelset strävar Miller efter att bygga ett nytt liv men dras in i kaos när ett högriskrån går snett och hotar hans brorsdotter, brorson och barnen till hans avlidne bror Vernon, som dödades under ett rån. Miller ställs mot rivaliserande gäng, polisen och organiserad brottslighet medan han förlitar sig på gamla färdigheter och allierade för att överleva och skydda sin familj. The cast includes Billy Zane, Serayah, LaMonica Garrett, and Martin Sensmeier. Takeover marks the final on-screen role for Takeoff, Quavo's late Migos bandmate, killed in a 2022 Houston shooting; circumstances around Vernon's death echo this real-life tragedy, suggesting Takeoff portrays the brother. The film employs Trioscope's hybrid animation process, blending live-action with a graphic-novel visual style to enhance action while preserving emotional depth. It was produced in association with GNR Films LLC, Huncho Films, Quality Films, and Real Folk Productions. Quavo has built a filmography with roles in Narcos: Mexico, Atlanta alongside Migos, Black-ish, Ballers, and voice work in the animated Sneaks with Anthony Mackie and Martin Lawrence. His film credits include Savage Salvation as Coyote, High Rollers with John Travolta, and Moses the Black with Omar Epps and Wiz Khalifa. Last year, when asked by TMZ if he could outshine rapper-actors like Tupac Shakur, Will Smith, Queen Latifah, and Ice Cube, Quavo replied, “I’m a great guy, yessir. They can’t f— with me.” The trailer's release highlights Quavo's transition from music to acting, with the story set in Atlanta's underworld.
