It’s now confirmed that 50 Cent will be teaming up Robert De Niro for the upcoming cop action/drama Freelancers. Movie will be directed by Jessy Terrero who most recently directed 50 Cent’s straight-to-video Gun. Plot revolves around 50 Cent’s character as the son of a slain NYPD officer who follows in his father’s footsteps and joins the police force but things quickly get interesting when he joins Captain Vic Scarcone’s (Robert De Niro) crew of rogue cops. Freelancers is funded and produced by 50′s Cheetah Vision production company. 50 and DeNiro previously worked together in Righteous Kill with Al Pacino.

After seeing this trailer you’ll be convinced that this film isn’t going straight to DVD since it stars Bruce Willis. Setup is the first release in 50 Cent’s $200 million production deal with Lionsgate. The movie is about diamond heist that turns deadly.

50 Cent covers VIBE again with another angry face. Issue hits stores April 5th.

50 expands his empire on a global level by signing a new distribution deal that will bring his G-Unit Records label to the international forefront. 50 took his G-Unit label from Interscope to EMI on a domestic level but now has teamed with indie label PIAS Group to distribute outside the US and will be based out of The U.K.

“Last year we took the decision to restructure the label and begin to carve out its own world-wide distribution, marketing and promotions strategy,” Nikki Martin, Vice President of G-Unit Records & Entertainment, said in a statement.

“After signing with EMI for North America, we looked at who could help develop the brand in other key territories and we decided to partner with PIAS who shared our vision and passion for the music.”

Only problem now is 50 needs to sign some artists that can actually move some units!

I’m pretty sure 50 doesn’t even know the unofficial trailer for his low budget flick Things Fall Apart is posted on his ThisIs50 website. But here you go. Warning…we did say LOW budget. But gotta love the Waka Flocka hair. This is the film where 50 plays cancer-stricken football player Deon Barnes and where he lost over 50 lbs to take on the role. The drama was directed by Mario Van Peebles and co-stars Ray Liotta and Lynn Whitfield.

Here is the official art for the Blu-ray and DVD release of 50 Cent’s next straight-to-video Blood Out. Co-stars his direct-to-video buddy Val Kilmer. Movie is set to hit stores April 26th through Lionsgate. Make sure to check out the trailer to see more 50 action.

This looks more like a sales reel vs. an actual full production trailer. I’m sure Lionsgate is working on the final trailer for the upcoming straight-to-video release which hits stores April 26, 2011. In the meantime this trailer should give you an idea of what to expect. Yea, that’s 50 Cent as a cop. To 50′s credit, this was not produced by his Cheetah Vision banner so you can’t blame the straight-to-video streak on him.
