Warner Bros. recently pushed back its feature-length Sesame Street film to 2022, but it's still well into production. In fact, more casting announcements have been made.

In a move that makes so much sense for anyone who saw his Coloring Book tour, Chance the Rapper has signed on to appear in the film. He'll join the previously announced cast member Anne Hathaway. Chance will play the Mayor's aide in the film.

The Sesame Street movie is being directed by Portlandia co-creator Jonathan Krisel. It will feature original music from Bo Burnham

Chance the Rapper appeared on the TV version of Sesame Street last year. You can watch his segment below.

The Sesame Street movie will arrive on January 14, 2022.
