50 Cent To Star In New Movie Alongside Sylvester Stallone And Arnold Schwarzenegger

Posted byBy Stan Castle | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

50 Cent has been picked to play in the action-thriller The Tomb, alongside actors Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

The film is based on an expert structural security builder (Stallone) who is framed and put in a high-security prison, in which the facility is of his own design. The character is determined to find out who set him up and put him in there.

50 Cent’s role hasn’t been discussed openly as of yet, but word around the industry is that he will play a fellow prisoner. Thus far in his acting career, the rapper-turned actor has been featured alongside many Hollywood heavyweights. He appeared in Setup with Bruce Willis, the Freelancers with Robert De Niro and in The Frozen Ground with Nicolas Cage.

The movie will also feature Oscar nominee Amy Ryan as its female lead, Jim Caviezel, Vincent D’Onofrio, and Vinnie Jones.

Amy Ryan will play Stallone’s love interest who starts out as his business partner in the film. D’Onofrio is tapped to play the director of the Prisons committee who convinces Stallone to take one last job before retiring. Jones will play a crazy prison guard who enjoys troubling the inmates.

More details on this film coming soon…

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
