Lexi Alexander quits UK Rap film

For those of you who have no idea who she is, Lexi Alexander is the Writer\Director of Hooligans, or Green Street, or Green Street Hooligans, or whatever title you want to call it!

Well according to Coming Soon she’s dropped out of the film Life ‘n’ Lyrics which was based around the British Rap scene, but it’s not all her doing:

The $6 million project, which was scheduled to begin filming September 11, is now on hiatus while the producers and financiers seek a replacement. Ashley Walters is set to star in the film, written by Ken Williams.

Alexander reportedly felt more time was needed for pre-production. There were unresolved issues over locations, casting and rehearsals. In the end, everyone agreed the production wasn’t ready to start.

So who knows when that’s going to start again, and in the meantime she’s off to work on the Disney project Labor Day, excuse the incorrect American spelling.

Personally I think this is a shame, I’d much rather see her on a harder edged movie that a Disney film. Her talent was obvious from Green Street and needs to be seen again.
