![]() However, his involvement in the movie industry is no less. ![]() hm Credit-Shutterstock/50 Cent Curtis James Jackson, professionally known as 50 Cent, has made a name for himself in the music industry, with many accolades under his belt. ![]() I’m planning to see it there and if I do, you can bet I’ll review it afterward. Entertainment by Isha Published: Aug50 Cent is done with weight loss jokes. The film will also screen at the 2011 installment of the Urbanworld Film Festival which runs this week. Image is reportedly looking at an early 2012 theatrical run, followed by a home video release. Image Entertainment acquired USA rights to All Things Fall Apart (formerly known as Things Fall Apart), the inspirational sports drama directed by Mario Van Peebles and starring Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, Ray Liotta, Lynn Whitfield, and Tracey Heggins. Wow! A cool million dollars! Apparently, 50 Cent really wanted to keep the name, but it was likely decided that the fight and potentially negative PR weren’t worth it. DailyFive (50 Cent, All Things Fall Apart) The Queens rapper 50 Cent shed nearly 27kgs to play a football player who has been diagnosed with cancer in. When Christian Bale turns skinny, he gets an Oscar, when Curtis 50 Cent Jackson turns skinny, well, its hilarious. And in reaction to that, “ producers tried to pay Achebe $1 million to keep the name, but he declined” as Clutch notes and thus the name change. Jackson is producing the film through his Cheetah Vision production company (does every actor have a company these days), and tells Variety, you have 90. Well, earlier today, Clutch Magazine reported that Achebe did eventually learn that the film had the same title as his novel, and went on the offensive. In my last post on this a few days ago, I speculated that the reason why the film’s title had been changed from Things Fall Apart (what it’s been called from the start), to All Things Fall Apart, was that the company distributing the film ( Image Entertainment) may have been influenced by the fact that the original title is also the name of a seminal, well-known piece of literature by Nigerian author Chinua Achebe, and wanted to avoid further confusion or hassle.
