Master P & Romeo to Star in The Pig People

Father and son team Master P and Romeo have signed on to star in an upcoming horror movie set in their home state of Louisiana. In The Pig People, Romeo will play one of five teenagers who venture into a haunted forest to film a documentary about the mythical half-human, half-pig Pig People. “I've never done a horror movie before,” said Romeo of the project. “It's a different kind of acting and the challenge is really allowing me to take my game to the next level. We're gonna make the audience jump out of their sears with this.” Although little has been revealed about Master P’s role, he will reportedly portray one of the film’s villains. The Pig People is being directed by David Gueringer for Vault Film productions and is due in theaters in 2009.
