Cardi B's acting career is far from over. The 'Hustlers' star revealed on the Oct. 3 edition of 'Ellen' that she's going to film another movie soon even though she was shocked by the long hours on the 'Hustlers' set.
Cardi B, 26, was a total scene-stealer in hit movie Hustlers. She played Diamond, one of the fellow strippers alongside Jennifer Lopez and Constance Wu. Cardi B tells Ellen DeGeneres on the Oct. 3 edition of Ellen that she “enjoyed” filming the movie but she “couldn’t believe that I was like on set for 16 hours.” Cardi notes she has long days as a rapper as well but she’s always moving around. During Hustlers, she spent a lot of time waiting in her trailer for her scene to starts. “You gotta do the same scene like 20 times,” the rapper says.
Ellen asks, “You’re not going to do that again, are you?” Cardi quickly quips back, “Oh yes, I am.” She reveals that she’s going to film a new movie this month. She admits why she’s going to continue with her acting career after Hustlers, “I enjoy the checks.”
