Kid Cudi to star in HBO series “How To Make It In America”


Cudi still has yet to release a major full-length album and he already has secured a lead role in a TV series. Cudi recently confirmed he will be starring in the new HBO series “How To Make It In America” to the Arizona Republic newspaper and stated the following:

“It’s called “How to Make It in America.” It’s produced by the guys that did Entourage. Mark Wahlberg is the executive producer. It’s directed by Julian Farino, who also did Sex and the City, several episodes of that and The Sopranos, and Entourage. I have a lead role. My character’s name is Domingo Dean. I actually named my character after both of my brothers - Dean, who lives in Phoenix, being one of them, and Domingo.”

The show will follow three twenty-something hopefuls in New York (Cudi being one of them) who is striving to live the American dream. Cudi was insistent though that his character in the show have nothing to do with music. The comedy was just announced with no production schedule or details as of yet. Props to Cudi for landing such a major role with little experience.
