The rapper
Chris "Ludacris" Bridges has joined the cast of
Fred Claus, an over the top comedy from
Wedding Crashers director
David Dobkin. The movie is headlined by comedy regular
Vince Vaughn. More info from
Coming Soon...
"Vaughn as Santa's loser brother living in New York who returns home to the North Pole and almost ruins Christmas. Ludacris will play an angry elf". Sounds like the typical cannon fodder that Vaughn usually gives us. I actually like the guy, and he is in my opinion the most talented of the "frat pack" of comedy actors. What's interesting about this movie is some of the other members of the cast which include
Kevin Spacey and
Paul Giamatti as Santa Claus. Different kind of movie for both of those acting heavyweights... it's gotta make this movie a must see when it's released Christmas 2007. source -
