Rapper and “Pimp My Ride” star Xzibit has joined the cast of Oliver Stone’s Pinkville, says The Hollywood Reporter. United Artists is distributing.
Xzibit, whose real name is Alvin Nathaniel Joiner, joins Bruce Willis, Channing Tatum and Woody Harrelson in the drama about the 1968 My Lai Massacre, in which more than 500 people — mostly women, children and the elderly — were killed by U.S. soldiers. Mikko Alanne wrote the script.
Xzibit will play a soldier who is convinced he carried out his orders in a moral way.
Production is set to begin next year.
