The versatile star will play a character named Jett in the sequel to the body-swapping comedy.
Cooper has quite the resume. He is a Tony Award-nominated actor, playwright, producer and director. His critically acclaimed play Ain't No Mo' made him the youngest black American playwright in Broadway history. Among the play's six Tony Award nominations was one for Cooper himself, for his role as the flight attendant, Peaches.
Cooper has appeared on television in BET's The Ms. Pat Show and FX's Pose. He also has his own production company called Cookout Entertainment.
