50 Cent's Pacino thriller
Jun 26, 2007, 13:00 GMT
50 Cent is set to star alongside Hollywood legends Al Pacino and Robert De Niro in a new film.
The 'Candy Shop' rapper - real name Curtis Jackson - is in final negotiations to star as a drug dealer in crime thriller 'Righteous Kill'.
De Niro and Pacino will play detectives tracking a serial killer, while 50's drug dealer will help them with their investigation.
The movie would only be 50's second film role after 2005's 'Get Rich or Die Tryin'', based on his life as a drug dealer-turned-rap star.
Jon Avnet is set to direct the $60 million project, which will see De Niro and Pacino star in almost every scene together.
The pair are long-time friends but have only teamed up twice before, in 'The Godfather: Part II' when they shared no screen time at all, and 'Heat', in which they appeared together in just one scene.
50 is currently embroiled in a battle with ex-girlfriend Shaniqua Tompkins, who is demanding he pay extra child support for their 10-year-old son Marquise Diamond Jackson.
He currently pays Tompkins $25,000 a month in child support and household expenses.

'and 'Heat', in which they appeared together in just one scene.'
Al & Bob shared three scenes, the first was when Al's character pulled over Bob's bad guy to ask if he wanted to get a coffee. The next scene was when the two talked at the coffee shop. If memory serves, most of that scene was shot over the shoulder and the two didn't appear in frame together very much. The final scene was the shootout at the airport.
