Singer is working on a yet-untitled film project, says Jason Weaver, who co-stars in his upcoming ‘Make Up Bag’ video. By Jayson Rodriguez, with reporting by Matt Elias The-Dream and Jason Weaver Photo: MTV News The-Dream began hinting at possible retirement in the weeks leading up to the release this spring of Love King, the third project in his trilogy. But now that the collection is out, what exactly will the songwriter do? According to his “Make Up Bag” video co-star, Jason Weaver, the Atlanta singer is set to venture into acting. “The name of the project is tentatively titled “Road to Beaverton,” the actor told MTV News. “Pretty much what this video is, “Make Up Bag,” is the set up for the film.” The yet-unreleased “Make Up Bag” video is set against a 1930s motif and in the clip, The-Dream, Weaver, and T.I. all don pinstripe suits. Weaver and The-Dream didn’t offer any additional details, but the songwriter has said in the past that the grind of a solo career is too much for him to juggle with his duties as production partner to Christoper “Tricky” Stewart. The-Dream and Stewart have an enviable track record, collaborating on hits for Mariah Carey, Mary J. Blige and Rihanna, among others. And while The-Dream hasn’t formally indicated Love King would be his last word as a solo artist, with a schedule that includes work on T.I.’s upcoming solo project, he’d be as busy tending to the rapper’s career as his own. In the past, he hasn’t seemed to mind the balancing act, going out of his way to praise his collaborators, including the Grand Hustle boss. “Tip is in a zone, man,” The-Dream told MTV News earlier this year. “He’s in one of those things. But me just being a lyric guy, what makes songs, I think, hits is when it comes from the heart and you really are saying something you mean. And you can feel it through the passion. Every record he played me, I was like, ‘Wow.’ I could just feel it.” Are you interested in seeing The-Dream take his talents to Hollywood? Talk about it in the comments! Related Artists The-Dream
