Fans curious about who might portray the Virginia Beach hip-hop duo Clipse in a cinematic retelling got an intriguing response during a recent Reddit AMA. When asked who could play him, Pusha T didnt hesitate with his pick.

If someone were to play me, it would have to be Tyler, The Creator, Pusha T shared, highlighting Tylers talent for immersing himself in character. You can really see it in his music videoshe fully commits to every persona and theme across his albums. I believe he could bring Pusha T to life. The climax scene? I imagine him dominating the competition, standing alone at the end, walking off into the sunset.

Malice, on the other hand, didnt offer a specific actor but explained the qualities required for someone to play him. I honestly dont know who could do me justice, he said. It would take someone with serious attitude, authenticity, and realness. I want the story to show resiliencepeople overcoming struggles, enduring hardships, and emerging victorious without ever giving up.

Tyler, The Creator is no stranger to acting. He starred in the sketch comedy series Loiter Squad on Adult Swim for three seasons, which has since gained a cult following online. Most recently, he appeared in a supporting role in the upcoming film Marty Supreme alongside Timothe Chalamet, slated for release on Christmas Day and already earning positive early reviews.

Meanwhile, Pusha T recently honored his longtime friend and collaborator Pharrell Williams with the Shoe of the Year award at the 2025 Footwear News Achievement Awards in New York, celebrating Pharrells Adistar Jellyfish design.

With Pusha Ts endorsement of Tyler, it seems fans might not have to wait long to see the Clipse story brought to life on the big screen.
