Freddie Gibbs and The Alchemist are outstanding actors.

One of hip-hop’s most revered collaborations is stepping into a bold new medium. Freddie Gibbs and The Alchemist have officially announced ALFREDO: The Movie—a visual project inspired by the sequel to their critically acclaimed 2020 album Alfredo. Set for release on July 17, the film promises to expand their already rich musical narrative into cinematic territory.

Alfredo, hailed by critics and fans alike as one of the best rap albums of the 2020s, fused Gibbs’ no-nonsense street storytelling with Alchemist’s masterful blend of soulful grit and noir-like soundscapes. Now, that signature chemistry is being reimagined for the screen.

While details are still largely under wraps, the teaser trailer offers a glimpse into what’s coming—fighting scenes, dramatic face-offs, and intense dialogue between Gibbs and Alchemist. It’s already sparking speculation that the film will draw heavy influence from classic Blaxploitation cinema, with themes of revenge, grit, and underground cool written all over it.

Whether ALFREDO: The Movie turns out to be a narrative film, a visual album, or something more abstract, one thing is clear: Freddie Gibbs and The Alchemist don’t miss. If the movie channels even a fraction of the album’s unfiltered bars, mafioso aesthetic, and cinematic sound, fans are in for something special.

Where can I watch this movie? Tubi? NBA TV?
