Tyler, the Creator has some surprises in store as he returns to your screens. He will also be starring in the upcoming film The 824, alongside a cast that includes Timothy Chalamet and Gwyneth Paltrow. Details about what to expect will be revealed during a showcase on Monday for the featured film.
About Marty Reisman..
While the specifics are still under wraps, it has been revealed that Josh Safdie will serve as the creative director, drawing inspiration from the legendary ping pong player Marty Reisman. According to Variety, Reisman earned the nickname “the Needle” due to his slim physique and clever personality, which played a role in his impressive achievements in table tennis from 1946 to 2002. Reisman passed away in 2012 at the age of 82.
Reisman Lifestyle ✨
Despite Reisman’s passing, he was affluent and dedicated to his craft, always finding ways to support his lifestyle and passions. He eventually became a touring act with the Harlem Globetrotters, with his last notable project being the 2019 crime drama “Uncut Gems”. Meanwhile, discussions have been circulating regarding Chalamet’s rumored role in an untitled Netflix film directed by Josh and Benny Safdie, which is expected to feature Adam Sandler in a leading role. Additionally, Megan Thee Stallion is anticipated to be part of the project, which focuses on the world of sports memorabilia, according to Indiewire.
Tyler, the Creator expressed his thoughts on the current state of music, particularly criticizing artists who create songs aimed at the meme generation. In an August interview, he said,
“There are so many people out right now who aren’t musicians but are treated like they are because they make meme records — and they’ll openly admit, ‘I don’t care about music. I just do this for money.’”
Some online critics felt that his comments were tone-deaf, arguing that “meme” music is a by-product of an evolved music landscape shaped by multibillion-dollar tech companies and algorithms like “For You” pages.
