<p>It looks like Lala Anthony has yet another acting role to add to her resume. This time she&#8217;ll be joining the cast of the Hulu hit series &#8220;Wu-Tang: An American Saga.&#8221;</p>
<p>According to <em><a href="https://deadline.com/2021/05/la-la-anthony-season-2-hulu-wu-tang-an-american-saga-recurring-1234765305/">Deadline</a></em>, the second season, which is currently in production, will pick up six months after the ending of the first season. Lala will be playing the role of Tracey Waples, who is described as &#8220;a young, vibrant Executive at Def Jam. She’s on the pulse of good music and boldly speaks her mind. After seeing Wu-Tang live she’s completely invested, but her plan for the group might not align with their own.&#8221;</p>
<p>Lala shared her excitement for joining the show and <em><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CPY3rQqtUiP/">said</a></em>, &#8220;Beyond blessed to be able to do what I love everyday. Thank you RZA for trusting me with this opportunity. The story of the WU-TANG CLAN is history and I’m happy to help tell it! @wutangonhulu season 2 coming soon!!!&#8221;</p>
