50 Cent reveals that he and Eminem are teaming up to develop a modern TV adaptation of 8 Mile. '[The show is] gonna be big. I’m working. I ain’t got no duds. I’m battin’ a hundred, I’m battin’ a hundred...'
50 Cent has announced that he has started developing a new TV series based on the Eminem biopic 8 Mile. Released back in 2002 to critical acclaim and box office success, 8 Mile was centered around a fictionalized version of Eminem named B-Rabbit, played by the rapper himself. The film followed B-Rabbit as he navigated the hardscrabble Detroit neighborhood he lived in, working in the blue collar sector while spending his free time building his rap career by attending rap battles.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY In an interview with BigBoyTV , 50 Cent said that Eminem, who almost starred in a cancelled movie adaptation of Grand Theft Auto, was developing the new 8 Mile television project with him, and that the pair have already started working towards making the idea a reality.
I’m gonna bring his 8 Mile to television... [The show is] gonna be big. I’m working. I ain’t got no duds. I’m battin’ a hundred, I’m battin’ a hundred... I think it should be there for his legacy, because if you don’t see… it’s important to me that they understand it... I wanna be able to show and offer a lot more details, things that you would say in an interview or different things that you’ve already used, that you put out there, and stuff like that.
One of the reasons for the success of these shows is that 50 Cent's name is still a big draw thanks to his acting ambitions, which landed him a role in the upcoming Expendables 4 movie, and his very strong social media presence. Probably the biggest reason for the success of the Power family of shows, however, is that the minds behind the series have shown themselves to be skilled and tireless marketers on social media platforms.
According to Nielsen's social content ratings, those efforts along with many others like them contributed to Power garnering more social media interaction over its six-season run than several of its acclaimed competitors, including Empire, Fear The Walking Dead, and How To Get Away With Murder. The fact that 50 Cent's shows are some of the only ones filled with morally gray and layered Black characters also fills a void in the current TV landscape.
