'The Vince Staples Show' Trailer Finds The Rapper Unfazed By The Chaos

Where Vince Staples goes chaos follows. The first poster for The Vince Staples Show, the Netflix series premiering Feb. 15, features the rapper with a black eye — and the trailer finds him dodging bullets, greedy family members, and jail time. Still, Staples isn't even bothered by any of that.

“Anything interesting going on?” Andrea Ellsworth's character asks Staples, who mentally recalls falling out of a mascot, fights at a cookout and an impromptu hangout with Rick Ross — downing lemon pepper wings — before simply replying, “Not really.”

Clips created The Vince Staples Show with Ian Edelman and Maurice Williams. The series was executive produced by both Edelman and Williams Blackish creator Kenya Barris, Corey Smyth and William Stefan Smith.

The five-episode satirical series stars Staples with a recurring guest cast of Ellsworth and Vanessa Bell Calloway. It also has some guest cameos from Naté Jones, Arturo Castro, Scott MacArthur, Bryan Greenberg and Myles Bullock.

“In the limited comic series, he's thrust into adventures while navigating life as a sort-of-famous, sort-of-rich, sort-of-criminal (but not really) rapper,” the series synopsis reads. “Unfortunately, anything that can go wrong usually does.”

The Vince Staples Show marks the first starring role for the rapper, who has earned a reputation as a scene-stealer in appearances at Quinta Brunson Abbott Elementary and in a supporting role last year White men can't jump remake, written by Barris.

“It will be an extension of what we did with YouTube. It will be an expansion of the YouTube series where I get help from Kenya [Barris] and Netflix to do exactly what I made, but more complete, and not a five-minute thing,” Staples said Magazine Interview in 2021. “We don't have a formula yet. I just know they say “Do what you want to do”. And with Dave and AtlantaI try to make sure my thing is clear from what everyone else is doing.”
