Back On The Strip: The star-studded flick is an absolute must-see this summer
Let’s keep it 100 - it’s tough out here for comedies this summer. From going to see No Hard Feelings and Joy Ride to The Blackening, it’s clear the industry is pushing to reignite the genre but things just haven’t hit right - until, now? The much-needed and absolutely must-see Back On The Strip has all the comedic elements and a star-studded cast you can’t help but geek out about.
Peep the details and look for the must-see comedy of the summer to land in theaters August 18.
In Back on the Strip, tough-as-nails Verna (Tiffany Haddish) sends her broken-hearted son Merlin (Spence Moore, Creed III) to Vegas, determined to help him make his dreams come true as a professional magician. But a chance meeting at a run-down hotel with Mr. Big (Wesley Snipes) - the front man of the once notorious Black male stripper crew known as “The Chocolate Chips” (JB Smoove, Faizon Love, Bill Bellamy & Gary Owen) - suddenly has Merlin thrust into a different kind of spotlight. In a race against time to get his girl back and help the out-of-shape and out-of-sync “Chips” rediscover their groove, Merlin will soon find he already has all the magic tricks he needs.
The film also stars Raigan Harris and Colleen Camp, along with a cameo by the legendary Kevin Hart. Chris Spencer who wrote the screenplay with Eric Daniel, makes his directorial debut. The film is produced by Geno Taylor, Missy Valdez, Wesley Snipes, Tiffany Haddish, Chris Spencer, Eric Daniel, Elie Samaha, Donald Kushner, and Jeru Tillman.
