Rapper Ice Cube has denied reports that he and his son O'Shea Jackson Jr are starring in the LA riots movie "April 29, 1992".
Following a report about their involvement in the film, the 46-year-old rapper released a statement asserting that he and his son are not formally attached to the pic, reported Deadline.
"Ice Cube and O'Shea Jackson Jr. Have no plans to commit to this project at this time. Any speculations or rumours that suggest that they are confirmed are simply untrue", the statement said.
Buzz around the LA Riots movie started growing in the wake of the runaway success of the NWA biopic "Straight Outta Compton" which Cube produced and featured O'Shea Jackson Jr as an actor.
The movie, which is approaching USD 100 million at the box office, did touch on the subject of the LA riots.
Cube will be seen next in the sequel to "Ride Along" with Kevin Hart, which bows in January.
