Travis Kelce made his Hollywood debut with the American war-comedy film My Dead Friend Zoe, on March 9 as an executive producer. Not to be left behind the NFL star’s ex-girlfriend Kayla Nicole shared an announcement about being cast in the spinoff of Netflix series Family Business.

Blex media shared a post on X, spotlighting the cast of the eagerly awaited Carl Weber’s Family Business spinoff, “The Family Business New Orleans.” Nicole shared the post and captioned it, “🥳🫶🏾”.

But as night falls, they delve into the shadows of the underworld.

The spinoff is currently shooting in New Orleans and Los Angeles with a premiere date on BET+ TBA. Nikaya D. Brown Jones serves as showrunner and executive producer alongside Weber, who also wrote all episodes. Trey Haley serves as executive producer and director.

As Kayla gears up for her role in this riveting narrative, Kelce’s cinematic project is already making rounds in theaters.

What is Travis Kelce’s movie about?

Travis Kelce ventured into new territory, taking his talent from the football field to the film set with “My Dead Friend Zoe.” This indie movie is making waves, all set to premiere at SXSW. For Kelce, who plays as the Chiefs’ tight end, stepping into the role of executive producer is a whole new “ball” game.

The film is a dark comedy with a modest budget of under $10 million. It is the story of a grief-stricken woman running away from her problems—at the behest of the titular spectral bestie that continues to haunt her—imbued its familiar formula with a sense of earnestness and charm.

However, it boasts an impressive cast, including Sonequa Martin-Green, Natalie Morales, Ed Harris, and Morgan Freeman. Kelce, along with fellow investors, is leveraging the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act to fund the project, charting new waters in film financing.
