50 Cent Steps Into The DC Comics Universe As A Producer On Live-Action "Xerø" Film
February 21, 2022
50 Cent is expanding his resume, once again. As
Deadline reports, the 46-year-old is stepping into the superhero realm with his latest role as producer on a live-action film based on DC Comics'
Xerø via his
G-Unit Film and Television company.
The movie will tell the story of a Black government assassin who "weaponizes invisibility by disguising himself as a white man to blend anonymously into the exotic Casino Royale haunts of the international elite," and will focus on "telling the story of his moral awakening and the life-and-death perils it presents."
Should the film succeed, Fif has plans to turn the project into a complete on-screen franchise. "There’s no one better than Christopher Priest to bring
G-Unit Film & Television into the world of comic book superheroes," the "Candy Shop" rapper admired the story's creator.
"Watch as we build
Xerø into a franchise alongside Christopher and Color Farm Media. I can’t wait for the world to meet Trane Walker in an all-new way," the New Yorker said.
For his part, Priest has also expressed excitement about working with
50 Cent and co-producers Joseph Illidge, Ben Arnon, and Erika Alexander. "
Xerø depicts a slow-moving car wreck at the intersection of race and class," he revealed.
