Kid Cudi has joined Gary Oldman, Armie Hammer, and Evangeline Lilly in Nicholas Jareckiā€˜s Dreamland. The film, already shooting in Montreal, attempts to cover every facet of the American opioid crisis in three interweaving stories. Hammer is playing a merciless drug lord moving Fentanyl across the U.S.-Canada border, Lilly is a mother who learns about her son’s drug involvement, and Oldman is a scientist who questions his own morality after his employer seeks to bring a new ā€œnon-addictiveā€ painkiller to market. Cudi joins a supporting cast that already includes Luther and Game of Thrones’ Indira Varma, Greg Kinnear, Michelle Rodriguez, and Lily-Rose Depp. Dreamland will premiere some time in 2020.
