Not only is TV on the Radio frontman Tunde Adebimpe releasing an EP with his Higgins Waterproof Black Magic Band side-project, the multi-talented musician is reportedly slated to appear in a star-studded upcoming film called Nasty Baby.

According to The Wrap, the flick is being helmed by writer-director Sebastian Silva (The Maid). Former SNL star Kristen Wiig is also in talks to star, although her casting hasn't yet been finalized.

Adebimpe and Silva will apparently play a gay couple, Freddy and Mo, who attempt to have a baby with a friend, tentatively played by Wiig. Other actors potentially in the running for supporting roles include Alia Shawkat (Arrested Development), Mark Margolis (Breaking Bad) and Denis O'Hare (True Blood). It's set in Fort Greene, Brooklyn.

This won't the first time Adebimpe has graced the silver screen. He was in 2008's Rachel Getting Married.
