The movie is directed by Charles Stone III that is more well known for his work on Drumline and Mr. 3000. The film will also feature more high profile characters that include Shaq, Chris Weber, Nate Robinson, Lisa Leslie, and Reggie Miller. You guessed it, all of which are aged in a hilarious way. Kyrie first shared his alter ego in a Pepsi commercial last year around the All-Star break. Now that character will come to life in the movie set.
