Eminem confirms bounty hunter role

[goymz]

Rapper and actor Marshal Mathers (aka Eminem) is jump-starting his career once again after confirming he will star in the movie remake of the 1950s TV Drama Have Gun – Will Travel.

This, in conjunction with an imminent mixtape from DJ Whoo Kid, marks the return of Eminem after an extended hiatus bought about by a combination of marital problems, addiction battles with prescription medicine and the tragic death of long time partner and best-friend, Proof.

The movie remake, which is being produced by Interscope/Shady/Aftermath and credited to Paul Rosenberg and Jimmy Iovine, tells the tale of Paladin – an educated and no-nonsense gunman for hire. Whether this is the role Eminem will play is still unclear, but it has been confirmed that he will star as a bounty hunter in the film.

This movie role will see Eminem completely removed from the musical scene as he launches into the action-based drama. The film will stay true to some elements of the original 1957 to 1963 series, but is not meant to be a complete replica as various characters, story lines and locations will be updated.

No timetable for a release has been scheduled.

I think he would do well in a comedy.

 

[THEV1LL4N]

[pclvson]

i think he should quit while he's ahead and spend all that money he made off of dopes who bought his albums (not sarcastic either and not hating, to each his own)

come on now, you might not like the guy but you can't honestly think he's not a very talented rapper, it's pretty much a fact.
