In a new interview with Big Boy, 50 Cent said that he's working on a new 8 Mile TV series. The show will be based on the 2002 box office hit that was loosely based on the life of Eminem, who also starred in the film.
“I'm gonna bring 8 Mile to television," he said. "We’re in motion.”
He also confirmed that Eminem is involved in the project, though he didn't say to what capacity, though he did say he feels the show should be available "for his legacy."
“It’s important to me that they understand it,” he added. “I’ma do Snoop’s story too, even though we paused on it because of Starz,” he said. “I was having issues with them over there at the time. So I paused on Murder Was the Case, but I think Snoop is…if the O.J. trial works, why wouldn’t Murder Was the Case work at this point?”
While 50 Cent wears many hats these days, he also recently said he's returning to his first love, rapping. "I'm gonna remind people I’m nice this year. New Music New Tv New movie let’s go!" he said in an IG post at the top of the year.
