But now Cardi's revealed on Instagram that she's set to take on her first Hollywood role and will make her acting debut in the film 'Hustlers' alongside the likes of Jennifer Lopez, Constance Wu, Keke Palmer, Julia Stiles, Lili Reinhart, and Mercedes Ruehl.

After the news emerged, Deadline reported that 'Hustlers' will begin shooting on 22nd March 2019 in New York, so it shouldn't be too long before we get some pictures from the set.
Speaking to deadline,'Hustlers' writer and director Lorene Scafaria said, “I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to work with this dynamic group of women. We’re grateful to have assembled such a powerhouse cast and can’t wait to start filming at the end of the week.”
