*Rapper 50 Cent continues to build his film resume with a part in the upcoming movie "Dead Man Running."
According to his British co-star Danny Dyer, the plot revolves around a 50's character, "who basically gets in a serious bit of trouble with a real gangster and he’s got one day to live or he’s going to get ironed out if he doesn’t raise the funds,” Dyer told BBC. “So, it’s basically about a dead man running, which is him, and I play his sidekick who’s trying to get him out of trouble.”
The role is a follow up to 50's appearance in "Righteous Kill," opposite screen icons Robert DeNiro and Al Pacino.
Dyer said of his hip hop-based co-star: “I don't know about him as an actor. He's definitely a presence. We come from totally different backgrounds but he's a great artist.”
