In an unexpected and notable show of personal conviction, rapper and actor Ice Cube declined a lucrative $9 million role in a film due to the production’s vaccination mandate, voicing his concerns over the increasing power of corporate conglomerates and what he perceives as an intrusion on personal freedoms.
In a recent interview with Joe Rogan on Thursday, the rapper, whose real name is O’Shea Jackson, opened up about the incident where he rejected a $9 million deal.
Ice Cube was slated to star alongside Jack Black in Sony’s upcoming comedy film “Oh Hell No,” directed by “Bad Trip” director Kitao Sakurai, until the production company required all cast and crew members to get the COVID-19 vaccine.
