discovery+ Orders More “Luda Can’t Cook” from producer Will Packer and Ludacris. Kitchen-challenged rapper, actor, and global superstar tackled Indian cuisine with the help of James Beard Award-nominated Chef Meherwan Irani in the first outing, which premiered in February, and future specials will explore a variety of flavors and cooking techniques from across the globe.
The streaming network has picked up three additional episodes. “Luda Can’t Cook” is produced for discovery+ by executive producers Packer and Kelly Smith from Will Packer Media and Matt Kelly and Mike Sorensen from Anomaly Entertainment.
“I had an amazing experience the first time around and went from being clueless in the kitchen to making some delicious dishes,” Chris (Ludacris) Bridges said in a statement. “I’m excited to team up again with discovery+ and Will to master all different kinds of cuisine so I can impress my wife, mom and kids with my new skills.”
A consummate businessman, Ludacris is a restaurateur and owns Chicken-n-Beer in Atlanta and his philanthropic endeavors include the educational platform Kid Nation and The Ludacris Foundation, which focuses on helping youth in his hometown Atlanta.
