Kid Cudi has enjoyed a great deal of success in the entertainment space not just as an actor and musician but also as a film producer, and his next silver-screen project is right around the corner.
On Monday (April 8), the Ohio native unveiled the trailer for MaXXXine, which will be the third and final installment of a slasher-horror trilogy starring Mia Goth in the lead role. Directed by Ti West, the first two films X and Pearl were both released in 2022 in collaboration with Cudder’s Mad Solar production company.

In addition to serving as an executive producer on all three films, he even played the role of Jackson Hole in the first part. The upcoming movie, which is scheduled to release on July 5, features Halsey, Kevin Bacon, Lily Collins and many more.

When the first two movies of the trilogy were released, Cudi received some pretty high praise from legendary director Martin Scorsese for his work.
The Cleveland superstar received one of the the highest stamps of approval in cinema back in 2022 when the Goodfellas filmmaker praised Pearl, which the “Mr. Rager” hitmaker co-produced in collaboration with LeBron James‘ BRON Creative and A24.
“I was enthralled, then disturbed, then so unsettled that I had trouble getting to sleep. But I couldn’t stop watching,” the New York City native said of the gruesome flick during an interview. “Ti West’s movies have a kind of energy that is so rare these days, powered by a pure, undiluted love for cinema.”
Cudi was mind-blown upon hearing about the above compliment as he subsequently tweeted: “This blows my mind. Martin Scorsese loves a movie I produced. Wow. Mad Solar, we here now.”

The 40-year-old made his Hollywood debut in 2010 when he notched a role in HBO’s How To Make It In America. Since then, he has appeared in major productions such as Netflix’s Don’t Look Up as well as his Entergalactic animated series, which he’s even touted as his “greatest achievement.”
