Ice Cube confirmed that he missed out on a $9 million film job because he refuses to get the COVID vaccine.

The rapper and actor revealed on the Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast that he was dropped from Sony Picture’s comedy Oh Hell No as a result of his refusal to producers’ requests to be vaccinated.

“I turned down a movie because I didn’t want to get the motherf—– jab,” said Cube. “I turned down $9 million. I didn’t want get the jab. F—k that jab. F—k ya’ll for trying to make me get it. I don’t know how Hollywood feels about me right now.”

“I didn’t turn it down,” he added. “They just wouldn’t give it to me. The covid shot, the jab… I didn’t need it. I didn’t catch that shit at all. Nothing. F— them. I didn’t need that shit.”

“That’s Hollywood thought. They’re on some shit. But me too, I’m on some shit too,” Cube replied when the hosts suggested he leave Hollywood for streaming and independent production. “I’m working on it. I’m hustling. Got a lot of things up my sleeve.”
