Tyga is heading to Hollywood. Luckily for the “Rack City” rapper, it’s not a far ride from Calabasas, Calif., to the silver screen.

The 36-year-old (born Michael Ray Stevenson) is set to make his feature film debut starring in the coming-of-age drama Baby, You’re a Star. In addition to taking on a lead role, Tyga will serve as a producer and cowriter for the movie. Decorated music video director Arrad Rahgoshay is slated to direct the movie musical.

Tyga will star alongside Outer Banks‘ Madison Bailey, Ashton Sanders, Mike Epps, Apollonia, Clifton Powell, Patrick Cage and David Alan Grier.

The film’s storyline hits home with Tyga, which will follow an aspiring music artst determined to overcome life’s obstacles to reach stardom.

“Blending music, nostalgia and raw emotional stakes, the film aims to capture the spirit of a generation on the brink of cultural change,” a press release for Baby, You’re a Star states. Production for the movie is currently underway in Portland, Ore.

Tyga has been a rap staple for nearly 15 years since his breakout Billboard Hot 100 top 10 hit “Rack City,” which reached No. 7 on the chart in early 2012. Among his 34 Hot 100 entries, Tyga’s notched another pair of top 10 anthems in his career with “Taste” alongside Offset (No. 8 peak) in 2018 and hopping on Chris Brown’s “Loyal” in 2014 (No. 9 peak).

T-Raww’s laid low for the first quarter of 2026 on the music side. The California native’s most recent album, NSFW, arrived in February 2025 with assists from Cher, Big Sean, Flo Milli, Lil Wayne, Shenseea, Lil Tjay and Ty Dolla $ign.
