Discovery+ cooks more with Ludacris

Chris ‘Ludacris’ Bridges in Luda Can’t Cook

Discovery+ has ordered more episodes of a culinary series in which rapper, actor and restaurateur Chris ‘Ludacris’ Bridges gets schooled in international cuisine.

Having premiered in February, Luda Can’t Cook will return for three specials that explore a variety of flavours and cooking techniques from across the globe.

The show is produced for Discovery’s streaming service by executive producers Will Packer and Kelly Smith from Will Packer Media and Matt Kelly, and Mike Sorensen from Anomaly Entertainment.

Courtney White, president of Food Network and Cooking Channel, said: “Our audience loved watching Ludacris accept an unexpected challenge. He is unrivalled in the studio and on the big screen, but not so much in the kitchen – and we are excited to bring him back to advance his cooking skills further and explore even more types of food.”
