Rihanna and Alexander Skarsgard will star in Battleship

Rihanna will put her acting lessons to the test very soon. It’s been announced that RihRih will be making her feature film debut in Battleship, due out next Spring via Universal Pictures. More details below

According to Variety Magazine the deal was announced just yesterday. Rihanna will co-star alongside “True Blood” actor Alexander Skarsgard and Taylor Kitsch of “Friday Night Lights” fame, while Director Peter Berg will handle behind the lens duties. The film, which is based on Hasbro’s popular naval board game, is expected to begin production soon.

The action film is set on land, at sea and in the skies as the characters battle to save the planet from a strong adversary. Kitsch takes the lead as a naval officer in charge or combat, while Skarsgard plays his brother.

The film is scheduled to be released May 25, 2012.

Do you think Rihanna can hold her own? This role actually sounds more like something Zoe Saldana would be great at.

    don’t underestimate the power of the Alien Princess… she’s gonna kill this, literally!

  • Where Is The Love?

    What do the real ACTRESSES have to say about that?!!!

    It’s all about exposure and all these celebrities are getting waaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy over the top.

    I’m sick of about every one of them, for real . . . too much.

  • Curveball

    ALEXANDER Skarsgård is “only” 6’4″. Everyone else on the show is just short.

  • Somali Ninga

    Alexander Skarsgard is so HAWT!!! ;-)

    I’d much rather see Fohead..err Rihanna act than hear her sing. I hope she retires from singing.

  • 2dimplzs

    @ curveball:

    6’4 is still very tall. But yes, everyone else is short. Bill Comptom (I forget the actors real name) is tall too, but not as tall as Alexsander.

  • aries79

    Yall haters are so jealous of

  • LaTanya

    I love Alex as Eric on True Blood! RiRi on the other hand not so much. I will not be in line for this one sorry!

  • Just Sit and Be Pretty

    Team Alex, he’s a hottie. I love that Viking vampire!!

  • marshh

    man i hope she duz a gud job

  • NWO

    Hell if her acting is like that 20/20 interview then it will flop big time. You know the one when she says “He has no soul” and come to find out she is the one that sold her soul for fame so she the one with no soul. Now that’s some poor acting

  • Panther

    I hope she don’t then that’s just another reason for chris brown not to be able to make money

  • txgals

    Be glad it’s not Beyonce.

  • Leslie

    LMAO @ Devotee

    You may be on to something…

  • Allie

    Seriously this is why hollywood is so f*cked up

  • ?

    No one is jealous of Rihanna maybe, if she could sing the roof off of a arena then yeah but she can barely carry a tune so NO! no jealously here. lol

  • NWO

    @Sunshine

    You mean to tell me that People.com said that 71% of the people said no and 29% said yes omg!!

  • Orchid

    Wow at that People poll. So it’s not just ummm “us”

  • Lyoness

    Dead at Devotee and Grand Theft Auto…

    Samuel L. Jackson and Nia Long were right. Singers need to stay in their lanes and let the people who went to acting school act.

  • ME

    IM LOOKING 4WARD TO IT. IM SURE IT’LL BE HILARIOUS!

  • bluekid

    @ Devotee
    No doubt he should be a black man, and that would be Vin Diesel who is of African decent.

  • Badd

    @ annoyed.:
    Haha ikr.
    @ Bluekid.:
    Heyy. Lmaooo. Continue doing what
    you do. You shut all the bytches DOWNNNNN.

  • WhoGoneCheckMeBoo

    she is so lucky to working w/ eric. he is sooooo fine. i wish sookie would be w/ him instead of bill on true blood. damn eric can get it. lol

  • deedee

    Why some many people wish her down fall i don’t understand.What did she do that was so bad?

  • bluekid

    I meant to say straight to VHS!

  • bluekid

    Eminem was the abuser in the relationship, Kim was the helpless one.

    Rihanna is abuser who got her azz kicked.

    Rihanna is supporting a known woman beater.

    Eminem is a brutal woman beater.

    What woman who has been abuse support a man who is known to beat woman on the level of Eminem, he was a repeated abuser.

    I bet Kim is some where crying her eyes out, while Rihanna supports rapist and women beaters.

    Matt Kemp known rapist and woman beater
    Eminem Known repeated woman beater

    I think Rihanna is trying to tell her fans something
    If you think she is so hot, when that judge let up off of Chris Brown, Rihanna is going to bring him back up.

  • Ne Ne aka iB@S

  • Injera70

    I hope this is a non speaking role. You know like she will be a deck hand swabbing the deck.

  • Why?

    Bluekid sounds like it has a crush on Rhi Rhi-look at this ”thing” gettin all pissed off and spouting hateful shit!

    Lmao at the haters, she obviously had to audition for the role, they didnt just cast her. she must’ve been decent to land it.
