Trailer to 50 Cent’s low budget British flick “Dead Man Running”
50 Cent x Dead Man Running. 50 Cent was on and off again in Manchester and London filming for the small budget British indie film Dead Man Running. This is where 50 got locked out of his own Rolls Royce while his posse tried to break into the car coat hanger style. Unlike 50′s future movie slate, this one is not produced under his new Cheetah Vision production company but instead is a small $5MM budget film produced by first timers. There currently are no plans to distribute this movie in the U.S. but I’m sure it will get picked up soon. If not, go check it out on Nov. 6, 2009 if you happen to be in the U.K.
Yeti says: 50 Cent Curtis Jackson took this role to get some indie work and credibility added to his acting resume and it’s a good safe way to gain experience. He definitely did not do it for the pay check as word is it was very minimal and well below his average asking price. That’s not a surprise considering the entire movie budget was $5MM. In comparison, Get Rich or Die Tryin’ had a $40MM budget behind it.
Mos Def to guest appear on episode of “House”

Mos Def x House. Mos Def is one of the few rapper/actors that doesn’t have to rely on TV guest appearances to build up his Hollywood reputation. He already has a full blown acting career and more important, has won over the hearts of producers and directors for his past performances. However, it’s hard to turn down a guest spot on a top rated TV show.
Mos Def will guest star on the hit FOX show “House” on March 23rd. In the episode Mos plays Lee, a man who awakens in New York after a bicycle accident who is unable to move or communicate in any way. House, then gets into a motorcycle injury himself and occupies the hospital bed next to Lee and quickly annoys the doctors treating them both by insisting that Lee has “locked-in” syndrome. From there it’s up to House to save Mr. Def.
Mos Def will be making his way back onto the big screen with the upcoming action/comedy film Next Day Air. Check out the trailer and poster art here. Movie hits theaters May 8, 2009. Via: CL
