“Insecure” co-creator and star Issa Rae has landed her first big movie gig. It is reported that Rae will star opposite former Saturday Night Live, Bill Hadar in Jesse Andrews’ directorial début “Empress of Serenity.”

Rae and Hader play passengers on a weeks-long “megacruise” — Hader’s character is trying to win back his ex-wife and mend his relationship with his widowed father on board with him, and Rae’s character will both help and hurt his ambitions.

Although this is Issa Rae first time in a full-length feature,  we are sure the hilarious actress will deliver. The project will start in August.

In the meantime, the HBO star and her hit series “Insecure” will be returning on July 23. Like the first season, the upcoming series will feature a ten-episode run.
