50 Cent Sues to Block Release of Horror Film He Stars In: ‘I Didn’t Get Paid’

50 Cent has sued the producers of an upcoming horror film that the rapper appears in, claiming he was never paid for his role.

The lawsuit, first reported by TMZ, seeks to block the release of Skillhouse, a horror movie about social media influencers locked inside a mansion and forced to get likes to survive. The lawsuit claims that Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson agreed to film his scenes in Skillhouse before finalizing and signing off on his contract, as he assumed he and producers (namely Ryan Kavanaugh) would eventually work out a deal. (The trailer posted last week by Fathom Events says “Starring multi-talented icon Curtis ’50 Cent’ Jackson” at the onset of its synopsis, though the rapper’s alleged role of producer is not mentioned.)
