Omari Hardick and rapper-turned-actor Nelly, are part of an ensemble cast of actors including Sylvester Stallone, Elizabeth Henstridge, Danny Aiello and Rebekah Chaney, who will star in the indie drama titled Reach Me, written and directed by John Herzfeld (15 Minutes, The Death and Life of Bobby Z).

The film centers on a group of people who all have a connection to a self-help book authored by a reclusive former football coach.

No word yet on what each actor's contribution to the film will be – specifically, what roles they'll play, and how involved their characters will be in the film's central narrative.

Stay tuned…

Hardwick can currently be seen on the big screen in Ava DuVernay's drama Middle Of Nowhere.

Nelly hasn't done much acting lately (or at all really); his last showing was in 4 episodes of CSI: NY during the 2008-2009 season.
