After starring in several movies and landing his own television series, Blade: the Series, Onyx member and actor Sticky Fingaz has decided to make the move to directing. The rapper-turned-director recently completed his second film, Caught On Tape, with him in the director’s chair. The film’s cast includes Vivica Fox, Kel Mitchell, Malik Yoba, Cedric The Entertainer, Bokeem Woodbine, and Joe Torry. Caught On Tape is due out later this year, as is Fingaz’ directorial debut, A Day In The Life. The film was produced by Fingaz, whose real name is Kirk Jones, and his Onyx groupmate and cousin Fredro Starr.

Starr explained that he and Fingaz have already financed two movie projects. He said,

“Me and Sticky, we shot two movies on our own, going through Lions Gate probably. One called Day In The Life starring Mekhi Phifer, Omar Epps, Bokeem Woodbine, Cedric The Entertainer, you know, Fredro Starr, Sticky, Kurupt, you know, everybody in that movie, you know what I’m sayin’? It’s the first rap movie ever done, you know what I’m sayin’? Everybody rapping their dialogue in the movie. That’s what we starting right now. We making rap and movie come together, ’cause we was one of the first people to really kinda like, you know, from the East Coast to, like, do movies, you know what I’m sayin’, so.”

Blade: The Series will premier this on Spike TV.
