Kanye West and Damon Dash have teamed up for a new entrepreneurial venture: film. As previously reported they already worked on the film Loisaidas together, and now they are set to executive produce the film Too Honorable, an action-packed shoot 'em up flick featuring Cam'ron, Styles P, Smoke DZA, Eishia Brightwell, Julito McCullum, Nicholas Turturro, Daniel Jenkins, Michael Rispoli, Smokey Suarez, Oschino Vasquez, and Murda Mook. Dash also acts and directs in the film, and his cousin Stacey Dash (Clueless) also has a featured role. The movie will hit theaters on May 25, although it's unclear whether it will receive a limited or wide release. You check can out the trailer below.

Dash and West finally reconciled this year at the BET Honors, following their spat after Dash's departure from Roc-A-Fella Records. Dash presented him with the Visionary Award, proving that the two men still had mutual respect for each other.

In a March 2015 interview with Page Six, Dash revealed that he was looking to work with his College Dropout collaborator again, but only on projects unrelated to music.

"Hopefully, Kanye will want to get creative and jump in as an actor or director or anything he wants," Dash told them. "The only thing I don't want to do with him is music, because we've already done that."

He added that collaborating on music would be "too obvious, there's no heart in that. There's an expectation when Kanye and I do something. It has to be different, it has to be authentic."

Too Honorable will be released by Damon Dash Studios, a self-funded venture that as of March already had four films made.
