Joaquin Phoenix announced he was giving up movies to pursue a career in music.
While we have yet to hear much of Phoenix's musical endeavors, we may not have to wait much longer. According to The Hollywood Reporter, actor Casey Affleck will go behind the lens to direct a documentary as Phoenix begins his journey as a rapper, beginning with his first public performance tonight at a club in Las Vegas.
Affleck will begin filming the documentary in Vegas, and continue to chronicle Phoenix as he makes his debut rap album, to be produced by none other than Sean Combs.
This will be Phoenix's first solo album, though he did receive a Grammy for his work on the Walk the Line soundtrack in 2005.
And while some of us may or may not be waiting on pins and needles for the album to be released, at least we already know he has his image nailed down:
