If it hasn't already been proven that Chance the Rapper is more than just a rapper, let the case close on this once and for all.

The Chicago native hopped online on Friday to share pitch a movie to the good people of Twitter and attempt to crowdsource a film, 280 characters at a time. His idea is an interesting, and uh, timely, one. It's about, drumroll please, Donald Trump.

In brief tweets, Chance laid down the basic premise of the future Hollywood blockbuster.

Basically, Trump receives his first iPod loaded with songs from every generation (including future generations) for Christmas, marking the first time he ever will have the ability to listen to music.

"And like A Christmas Carol, It’s a Wonderful Life, or What Women Want this iPod drastically changes how President Trump sees the world," he tweeted.

Chance then called upon Hollywood and Twitter alike to pitch in their "songs, actors, a title, an ending" for what he's declared to be a "suspense thriller/sappy Christmas musical," and the ideas began pouring in from his fan base. So many people contributed scenes to suggestions on who to collaborate with musically for the film.

"Bam. It’s officially a movie," he finally tweeted, and because it's Chance, he also threw in another possible film into the mix.

"Also I got an idea just like this but for like... a racist police officer," he explained. "Because I believe if we can humanize Blacks through orcs in "Bright"we can humanize just about anyone. Im done with this app for the day. But most likely not."

If by the power of Twitter we can get a buddy film with Rihanna and Lupita Nyong’o on Netflix in our near future, then this should be a walk in the park. Directors, where you at?
