Pusha T, the influential rapper from Virginia Beach, has revealed his dream casting choice for a biopic about his life and career. According to the rapper, none other than Tyler, The Creator would be perfect to play him on screen.
In a recent Reddit AMA session, Pusha T was asked who he thinks should portray him in a movie. His response was nothing short of glowing praise for his friend and fellow Virginia Beach native, Tyler. Pusha T cited Tyler's immersive music videos as evidence of the artist's ability to fully immerse himself into characters.
"I think he really dives into character," Push said, highlighting Tyler's creative skillset. "You can tell through his videos he really dives into character, and I think he could play me." Push envisioned a film that would showcase Tyler playing him in a climactic scene where the rapper is portrayed as an unstoppable force, taking down all his competitors.
On the other hand, when asked who should play Malice – his brother and collaborator – Pusha T expressed some hesitation. However, when discussing what qualities he looks for in someone to portray Malice on screen, the rapper emphasized resilience, authenticity, and genuineness.
Tyler has had a significant acting career already, having appeared in the Adult Swim sketch comedy show Loiter Squad alongside Odd Future and playing a supporting role in Marty Supreme opposite Timothée Chalamet. A biopic about Pusha T and his brothers would undoubtedly be an exciting project to tackle, given the rapper's vast creative output.
Someone should indeed take up this offer – it seems like Pusha T is itching for a film adaptation that would showcase his remarkable story on the big screen, with Tyler, The Creator at the helm.

! Can you even imagine Tyler, The Creator as Pusha T? 
I know some people might think it's a weird choice, but trust me, he would NAIL IT 
! His music videos are always so immersive and character-driven, I have no doubt he'd bring that same energy to the screen. Plus, him and Pusha T are like, super close friends, they're basically two peas in a pod 
. And, let's be real, who better to play Malice than someone who's already proven themselves as a talented actor? 
I'm literally rooting for this biopic to happen ASAP! Can you imagine the scenes with Tyler playing Pusha T in all his glory? 
... Like, sure, Tyler's got some sick music vids under his belt, but can he really pull off playing Pusha T on screen? He's got that whole awkward dude thing going on, and I'm not sure it'd translate well to the big screen. And what about Malice? Pusha T seems kinda unsure about casting someone, and for good reason - whoever plays him is gonna have some big shoes to fill 
. Plus, a biopic's got a lot of pressure on it, you know? Can they really do justice to all the drama and controversy that surrounds Pusha T and his fam? I'm skeptical, but I guess only time'll tell 
pusha t and tyler, the creator together would be pure magic 
imagine the scenes where tyler plays him as an unstoppable force, taking down all his competitors 
it's like tyler already knows how to bring characters to life through his vids. plus, he's had some great acting credits under his belt 
i'm low-key rooting for this biopic to happen now 
. And honestly, it'd be dope 2 see Malice get portrayed by someone who's actually resilient n genuine – gotta find the right person 4 that role tho 
.
He's already proven his acting chops on Loiter Squad and Marty Supreme, so this would be a no-brainer. I'd pay good money to see him as me (just kidding sorta 
) but seriously, the way he gets into character in those music vids is wild. And for Malice, I think someone with that much resilience and authenticity would be perfect. Whoever takes on this role should be ready for a wild ride, cuz Pusha T's life is WILD 
! But Tyler's already proven himself as a talented actor and director, so I trust him to get it right.
Also, would love to see @tylerthecreator bring Malice to life too... gotta have someone who can capture that bro's resilience and authenticity 
. And can you imagine a biopic about Pusha T and his brothers? The possibilities are endless
