The Uncle Ruckus Movie

The Uncle Ruckus Movie is a cancelled live-action comedy film in 2013 based on the titular character from Adult Swim's animated sitcom The Boondocks created by Aaron McGruder.

McGruder expressed interest in a live-action movie adaptation of The Boondocks but refused to allow real life children be cast as Huey and Riley, who he believed were impossible to be portrayed in live-action. Therefore, he settled on a movie that solely centers upon Uncle Ruckus.

Plot
The film revolves around the angry bigot Uncle Ruckus working to promote white supremacy in the United States.

Why It Was Cancelled

 * 1) Budget issues - the Kickstarter fundraiser for the film failed to meet its goal of $200,000.
 * 2) Fans of The Boondocks weren't very eager about the movie because Huey and Riley were written out of it. Even so, many fans thought they had to choose between either a Season 4 for The Boondocks or a live-action movie about Uncle Ruckus, and those fans wanted the former. This was actually not the case, because Season 4 would have still happened even if the Uncle Ruckus movie were made.

Results

 * 1) The Boondocks earned a Season 4 one year after the fundraiser for the Uncle Ruckus film ended, but without the involvement of Aaron McGruder.

Cast

 * Gary Anthony Williams as Uncle Ruckus
