News 50 Cent and Forest Whitaker doing Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde Remake

Stay Fly · 05-14-2009, 12:28 PM

Director Abel Ferrara is working on a Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde re-imagining and Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson and Forest Whitaker are said to play the leading roles.

Executive Producer Luc Roeg told Variety: "The combination of such formidable talent in front of and behind the camera will turn this wonderful gothic story into a modern classic for a whole new generation."

Filming will take place this summer.

It's not the only Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde inspired Movie in the near future, Keanu Reeves is working on another project inspired by Robert Louis Stevenson's 1886 novella The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

Damnnn 50 is getting a lot of movie roles.

Well it pays more then music so why not.

If other rappers would have it like that they'd probably do it the same.

so

GO 50! (no homo)
