Rihanna is now a Smurf.
The music superstar made a surprise appearance at CinemaCon on Thursday to announce that she's voicing Smurfette in “The Smurfs Movie,” a new live-action/animated hybrid expected in theaters Feb. 14, 2025.
Rihanna said, “This is a delight. Getting to do animation is a fun journey for me. I’m usually front and center with everything, but (with) this I get to play a part and a role and I get to imagine. I get to show up in my pajamas in my third trimester and get to play a little blue badass.”
“I hope this gives me a little bit of cool points with my kids one day."
In addition to starring and producing, Rihanna is also creating and performing original music for the film.
