Lil Yachty doesn't look like he's going anywhere any time soon. The self-proclaimed King Of Teens just released his highly anticipated album, Lil Boat 2 on Friday. The project showcased an exponential amount of growth from the young artist and served as proof that he's here to stay. Shortly after the release, it looks like he's taking his talents to the big screen. 

Lil Yachty has been tapped to play Green Lantern in the upcoming Teen Titans GO! film, USAToday reports. In addition, to Yachty, they also recruited Halsey to play Wonder Woman. According to the report, these two are the first of many other celebrities to lend their voices to the film. The film's executive producer, Sam Register, said both Yachty and Halsey are well fitting for their characters.

"Every superhero in the DC Universe has an impact on the fans, so we felt a great responsibility to find a voice for each character that would not only suit the role, but the playful tone of the Titans, and we’re thrilled with our cameo cast," Sam Register said to USAToday.

In addition to Yachty and Halsey, Robin will be played by Scott Menville, Starfire will be played by Hynden Walch, Tara Strong will take on the role of Raven while the role of Beast Boy will be handled by Greg Cipes.
