Kim Kardashian Plans To Star And Produce In A New Movie

Presently, Kim Kardashian is taking part in the negotiations for a new movie, The 5th Wheel. To that end, Kim is in motion to branch out her career.

Both Paula and Kim will produce the movie together. Supposedly, there are already multiple bids to work with Kim. Reportedly, at least five studios are battling for the deal. Currently, there aren’t many details on the movie itself yet.

What Are People Saying?

Several people made comments about the news of this career move:

  • One commenter says, “To whom it may concern: Kim Kardashian has been acting in films and TV shows for several years. This is nothing new.”
  • Someone points out, another film exists with the same name. They said, “There’s a 5th Wheel script already floating around with attachments but the Kardashian juggernaut will probably squash that one. Anyone know if it’s the same idea/premise?”
  • And someone else says, “Hollywood still hasn’t figured out that people don’t go out to see people they can see at home. Influencers and TV stars don’t open movies. That’s why the cast of Game Of Thrones and Breaking Bad have had flop after flop. That’s why Tiktok stars can’t get butts in seats.” Continuing, “The Kardashians are overexposed. Unless this is a strictly VOD play, the movie won’t make it’s money back. And even that might be a stretch given the likely huge budget.”
