Development[edit]
On March 22, 2022, American musician Scott Mescudi (better known as Kid Cudi) revealed he’s been working on his directorial debut for a feature film called Teddy.[1] He announced the film would be released with Netflix in conjunction with Bron Studios and Mescudi's Mad Solar production company.[2] The film, which Mescudi wrote and in which he’ll star, is executive produced by Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter, James Lassiter and Jeymes Samuel.[2] The film marks Mescudi’s second team-up with Samuel, Carter, and Lassiter, following his contributions on the track “Guns Go Bang” for their Netflix Western The Harder They Fall, earlier in the year.[1] “This is a story I started writing in 2013 because I always wanted to write my own movie, so I said fuck it and started doing it,” Cudi wrote. The statement continues:
"The road has been long, from it being a tv show for years to finally being a film. So it means so fuckin much to finally be able to bring it to the screen next year, and I cant wait for u all to meet Teddy, his friends, his family and take a walk in his world for a bit. If I could sum up what the movie is about in one sentence, id say this: It’s as if I took the song “Pursuit of Happiness” and wrote a movie about it. I added a lot of my own personal struggles and experiences in it, so this film is very close to my heart. I know, that deep down, this movie will help people in the same ways my music has. Im continuing my mission. Now this is a comedy, but It wouldn’t be me if I didn't sprinkle some real shit in there. Its trippy, its fun, its sad, its life."[1]
