Samuel L. Jackson
Sam Jackson is one of the most successful actors at the box office with over $7 billion in gross. 50 Cent got a chance to work with Jackson in the 2006 Iraq war film, Home of the Brave.
Ray Liotta
Oscar-nominated actor Ray Liotta co-starred with 50 Cent in the 2011 film All Things Fall Apart. The film provided a chance for 50 to push the boundaries physically to get into character.
Forest Whitaker
Oscar-winning actor Forest Whitaker and 50 Cent worked together in 2012’s Freelancers, and again for Southpaw, which is out this summer.
Al Pacino
What’s not to learn from the man who portrayed Scarface? 50 Cent got a masterclass session in acting from working with Al Pacino in 2008’s Righteous Kill, also starring Robert DeNiro.
Jake Gyllenhaal
50 Cent plays a boxing promoter in Southpaw starring Jake Gyllenhaal. The actor and rapper have become real-life friends too.
Robert DeNiro
It’s probably never a bad idea to have Robert DeNiro on your call list. 50 Cent and Bobby D. starred together twice in 2008 flick Righteous Kill, and 2011’s Freelancers.
Antoine Fuqua
Southpaw producer Antoine Facqua and 50 Cent go back years before they teamed up for the new film. In 2011 it was reported that 50 and Facqua were teaming for a production company.
