negotiations to star as a drug dealer in crime thriller 'Righteous Kill'.
He is set to star alongside Hollywood legends Al Pacino and Robert De
Niro.
De Niro and Pacino will play detectives tracking a serial killer, while 50's
drug dealer will help them with their investigation.
The movie would only be 50's second film role after 2005's 'Get Rich or Die
Tryin'', based on his life as a drug dealer-turned-rap star.
Jon Avnet is set to direct the $60 million project, which will see De Niro
and Pacino star in almost every scene together.
The pair are long-time friends but have only teamed up twice before, in 'The
Godfather: Part II' when they shared no screen time at all, and 'Heat', in
which they appeared together in just one scene.
50 is currently embroiled in a battle with ex-girlfriend Shaniqua Tompkins,
who is demanding he pay extra child support for their 10-year-old son
Marquise Diamond Jackson.
He currently pays Tompkins $25,000 a month in child support and household
expenses.
I'm sure it will be a piece of cake for 50.
