50 lands loan shark role opposite Blethyn
Rapper 50 CENT has signed up to play a loan shark, opposite BRENDA BLETHYN, in a hard-hitting new British gangster movie.
The hitmaker, real name Curtis Jackson, is currently shooting scenes in London for Dead Man Running, a film about an ex-convict, who is given 24 hours to raise £100,000 to pay off Jackson's loan shark.
The film is being backed by English soccer stars Rio Ferdinand and Ashley Cole, who are among the project's executive producers.
