‘Black Panther’ Star Winston Duke To Play MMA Legend Kimbo Slice

#Roommates, ya’ll remember M’Baku from “Black Panther” right? Well that fine brotha has been tapped to star as the late #KimboSlice in the biopic, “Backyard Legend.”

Deadline reports the film is in the works and will showcase the Bahamian-born fighter’s claim to fame, from homelessness to MMA star. Kevin Kimbo Slice passed away in June 2016 at the age of 42 from heart failure and a liver mass.

Winston and Kimbo’s longtime friend and manager, Michael Imber, will serve as executive producers on the film. Imber’s role has not been cast as of yet.

Will ya’ll be at the box office for this one, #Roomies?
