When Kanye West isn't pissing of PETA or renaming his singles, the rapper keeps himself busy with myriad other projects. Currently at work on an album with his G.O.O.D. Music crew, the rapper and producer is also rumoured to be preparing a short film for debut at the Cannes Film Festival.

According to the NY Daily News [via Hype Beast], Ye is planning to screen a 30-minute film at Cannes that he will produce, write, direct and score. The secret project is rumoured to be a thriller that will star Kid Cudi.

While details are hazy, sources told the paper that Kanye has yet to start shooting the film, but he has been hyping it up as another "spectacle" that will surely change the world.

"That's just the way Kanye does things," the source said of Kanye's last-minute approach. "He is already talking to the right people to make sure it happens with short notice."

If this rumour is true, Kanye better hurry up. After all, Cannes kicks off on May 16, but maybe he's shooting for next year's event.
