Ice Cube<\/a> isn\u2019t going anywhere.<\/p>\n On Monday, a tweet from X account @HoopsCrave went viral regarding Cube\u2019s acting career.<\/p>\n HoopsCrave is, like many accounts on X, one that calls itself \u201cparody\u201d in its bio<\/a>, has a name and logo similar to a more established account that shares news (PopCrave<\/a>, in this case), and its posts are in the format of news headlines but are false, presumably intended as jokes.<\/p>\n \u201cIce Cube says he\u2019s done with Hollywood: \u2018They keep offering me the same angry Black man role,\u2019\u201d the account tweeted.<\/p>\n COMPLEX SHOP:<\/b> Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere. Uncover what’s next. Buy. Collect. Obsess.<\/a><\/p>\n The rapper and actor quickly fired back. \u201cStop lying,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n While HoopsCrave\u2019s post was false, there is a reason it fooled many people, to the point where Ice Cube felt compelled to respond. One of the more recent films Cube starred in, 2025\u2019s War of the Worlds<\/em>, was critically panned and initially earned a zero-percent Rotten Tomatoes score. The flick has now climbed to a four-percent rating on the site.<\/p>\n Cube was named the worst actor at this year\u2019s Razzies<\/a> for his role in the Prime Video movie, which took home a total of five dishonors at the 46th Razzie Awards, including Worst Picture.<\/p>\n While he largely avoided promoting the film, Cube did reveal on a livestream with Kai Cenat that War of the Worlds<\/em> was shot during the COVID-19 pandemic<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cThis is a movie I did in 2020 during the pandemic,\u201d Cube said in September. \u201cWe shot it in 15 days, and it was during the pandemic. So the director wasn\u2019t in there. None of the actors was in there. This was the only way we could really shoot the movie.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/a> Ice Cube Says He Shot Critically Panned \u2018War of the Worlds\u2019 Without Director, Actors During COVID<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n <\/a> Ice Cube Named Razzies Worst Actor for ‘War of the Worlds’<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n <\/a> Ice Cube Calls Out Fake Quote About LeBron James and Michael Jordan Falsely Attributed to Him<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n ‘Real Housewives’ Alum Jen Shah Takes Full Responsibility for Fraud Scheme After Prison<\/a><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n Hilary Duff Says Psychic Delivered Message From Ex Aaron Carter<\/a><\/i><\/b><\/p>\nRelated News<\/h3>\n
