50 Cent has reportedly been chosen to star in Sylvester Stallone's forthcoming movie, The Expendables, replacing actor Forest Whitaker.

Due to scheduling conflicts, Whitaker was forced to abandom his role, leaving Stallone with an opportunity to cast Fif.

"Trust me, the change of Forest Whitaker to 50 Cent AKA Curtis Jackson is a good one," Stallone wrote in a statement. "Nobody wanted Eric Roberts over Ben Kingsley, but I believe it's a vastly improved cast. The point is, you either believe in me and the project, setting your personal feelings aside, or you take a darker approach, which really serves no purpose since your insight and suggestions and overall are a great thrill for me to behold everyday I sign on." (Press Release)

The film is scheduled to begin filming later this month.

Stallone, who wrote and will direct the film, is starring in the project, which focuses on a group of mercenaries heading to South America to overthrow a ruthless dictator. Jason Statham, Jet Li, Randy Couture, Dolph Lundgren, Eric Roberts, Charisma Carpenter, Steve Austin and Mickey Rourke will also star. Sly's pal Arnold Schwarzenegger will appear in a cameo role. Shooting will begin in Brazil later this month. (All Headline News)

In addition to the forthcoming film, Fif is also slated to co-star in a few other movie projects.

50 Cent has been tagged to star in the upcoming UK film, Dead Man Running, which will be directed by the same man responsible for the highly successful video game, Grand Theft Auto 2. The G-Unit leader has also been chosen to star in director Gela Babluani's upcoming flim 13. Production and release dates for these projects have not yet been disclosed. (SOHH)

The condemned isn't as bad as everyone says it be. I actually liked it. I'm surprised that nobody in real life tried that reality show topic.

Re: 50 Cent Replaces Forest Whitaker In Upcoming Stallone Movie

Elano · « **Reply #13 on:** March 23, 2009, 12:13:12 PM »

It seems as if 50 Cent is not “expendable” after all. Sylvester Stallone who just announced last week that the G-Unit rapper would be replacing Forrest Whitaker in his new blockbuster action flick, The Expendables, has recast the role once again.

Ain’t It Cool News, who said Fif would be taking over for Whitaker due to the actor’s scheduling conflicts, now reports that Stallone has switched the muscle bound G-Unit leader for the equally daunting Terry Crews. There’s no word on why Fif was replaced.

Crews is most known for his role as the hardworking father on Chris Rock’s sitcom, Everybody Hates Chris, but the former football player has also starred in a handful of movies including The 6th Day, Street Kings and the forthcoming Terminator Salvation.

The actor will be playing Hale Caesar in The Expendables, a movie about “a team of mercenaries [that] head to South America to overthrow a dictator,” per IMDB.

Scheduled to begin filming on March 28th, the flick will also star such action movie royalty as Arnold Schwarzenegger, Dolph Lundgren, Mickey Rourke, Jason Statham and Jet Li. It is set to hit theaters next year.
