Whilst DJ Khaled is known for songs such as 'I'm the One', featuring Justin Bieber, Quavo, Chance the Rapper and Lil Wayne, and 'Wild Thoughts' featuring Rihanna and Bryson Tiller, it looks like he will be turning his hand to acting in the near future.
The 'No Brainer' singer took to Instagram recently to confirm that he has started filming for the Bad Boys sequel. Posting a photo of himself sitting in a very luxurious looking car, DJ Khaled said, 'In my mind, I've always been an A-list Hollywood superstar. Y'all just didn't know yet. (Quote from the Great WIll Smith @willsmith ). THIS how I’m feeling leaving from a day of filming @badboys #3'. [sic]
The role that DJ Khaled will play in the new film has not yet been revealed, however, this announcement has got many of his fans super excited. One fan commented, '🔥😍' with another saying, 'U a star period!'. [sic]
The official Instagram account for the film also reposted another of DJ Khaled's photos, showing him leaning on a director's chair - with the name of the film.
Bad Boys For Life will star see Will Smith and Martin Lawrence reprise their characters from the 1995 film, and is due for release in 2020. This sequel comes a massive 17 years after Bad Boys II, and 25 years since the original film appeared on the big screen.

2 of 10Toy Story 4
There were no dry eyes in the house at the end of Toy Story 3 - and whilst many were happy with how the trilogy finished, the new trailer has made fans realise that perhaps they do need another film in the series after all. Toy Story 4 will be released in the UK on 21st June 2019.
3 of 10Avengers: Endgame
The second part to the finale of the Avengers film series will be released next year. Following on from Infinity War where half the population of the world has been wiped out by Thanos - including a LOT of our favourite Avengers - how on earth will our heroes conquer the evil genius? Avengers: Endgame will be released in UK cinemas on 26th April 2019.
4 of 10Star Wars: Episode IX
There's also another major finale to a trilogy coming out next year in the form of Star Wars: Episode IX. After Rey was able to harness the Force, fans have been left wondering if they'll ever discover her true parentage - or whether she really is a nobody, as Kylo Ren said. It will be released on 20th December 2019.
5 of 10Dumbo
Disney are not holding back with their plans to give most of their old classic films the live-action treatment after the success of films like The Jungle Book, and Dumbo is now in the works. The trailer on its own had viewers weeping, so it's most likely to be a huge tear-jerker when it's released in the UK on 29th March 2019.
6 of 10The Lion King
Another Disney classic to be given a live-action makeover next year is The Lion King. Fans of the original were dubious over whether anything could compare to the 1994 animated film, but the star-studded voice cast has managed to turn people around. The Lion King will be released in the UK on 19th July 2019.
7 of 10It: Chapter 2
The sequel to the incredibly successful 2017 remake of It will be released next year, following the lives of the children after they've grown up. Although the child cast will still star, James McAvoy, Jessica Chastain and Bill Hader will take on the roles for the sequel. It: Chapter 2 will be released in the UK on 6th September 2019.
8 of 10Aladdin
2019 is going to be a huge year for the Disney live-action remakes, as Aladdin is also set to be released. Directed by Guy Ritchie, fans of the original cannot wait to see Will Smith's take on the Genie after it was originated by the late, great Robin Williams. Aladdin will be released in the UK on 24th May 2019.
9 of 10Men In Black: International
Men In Black: International will take the focus away from Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones, and instead reunite Thor actors Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson. Also starring Liam Neeson and Emma Thompson, the sequel will be released in the UK on 14th June 2019.
10 of 10Frozen 2
The first Frozen film was one of the most popular children's films of the decade, so it's no surprise that a sequel has been in the works since its release in 2013. Bringing back Kristen Bell and Idina Menzel as sisters Anna and Elsa, Frozen 2 will be released in the UK on 22nd November 2019.
According to Variety, Jerry Bruckheimer will return to produce the new film, with the plot of Bad Boys For Life, set in Miami, revolving around a modern, highly specialised police unit, who meets the 'old school' Bad Boys - Will Smith and Martin Lawrence.
We can't wait to see who DJ Khaled plays in the new film.
