50 cent hits the big screen again

rapper 50 cent will play together with nicolas cage in the dance, which tells the story of billy "the kid" roth (cage), a boxing veteran who becomes volunteer boxing coach in louisana's state prison and discovers a boxer (cent) with potential but also a life sentence.
we didn't know 50 cent could act (unless you call his act in get rich or die tryin' acting), but apparently there are more people who'd rather see him act than rap. he's also starring in home of the brave, an irwin winkler film, co-starring jessica biel and samuel l. jackson. home of the brave focuses on three iraqi soldiers who come home and have difficulties dealing with normal life again.
we're curious.
