The statement came during a Reddit "Ask Me Anything" session, one carefully timed with the imminent release of Big Boi'sBig Grams collaboration with Phantogram.

Andre 3000 has already made it clear that he'd like, of all people, Leonardo DiCaprio, to play him in an Outkast movie. Here's hoping that it all comes together and we see 'Kast broadcasted on the silver screen sometime soon.
