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
