Rihanna, Chris Brown ‘land film projects’

NEW YORK - If rumours are to be believed, both Rihanna and her ex-beau Chris Brown have landed roles in different movie projects.

Rihanna, who’s in New York to work on her new album, is also taking acting lessons while in the Big Apple, according to a source.

“Rihanna will start filming ‘Personal Protection’ later this year. She’s not ready, actingwise, yet, so she’s meeting with a coach,” the New York Daily News quoted a source as saying.

Meanwhile, Brown has also become a part of an untitled project.

“Chris plays a homeless character. It’s a real rags-to-riches story and should be good for his image,” a friend said.

Brown will shoot for three weeks over the summer in both L.A. and Memphis. (ANI)
