It used to be that you could find 50 Cent in da club with a bottle full of bub’. Now, you can find 50 Cent on a poster for The Expendables 4, looking like the sort of hack Photoshop job that we’ve all gotten used to – all of us except Curtin Jackson, that is.
After seeing his character poster for The Expendables 4 (stylized as Expend4bles, but come on), 50 Cent took to social media, posting on Instagram, “WTF did we run out of money? Why my head look like it ain’t connected to my body. I bet they are gonna make @officialslystallone look great. SMH” Taking a look at the slew of character posters, yeah, Stallone does look pretty badass…We wouldn’t mind hearing from Megan Fox on the matter, though…
50 Cent joins The Expendables franchise as Easy Day, something he’s clearly not having regarding how he looks on the poster. While the rapper-actor may not initially seem like a natural fit and points to just where the casting has gone since the original movie, 50 Cent has proven to be a perfectly fine presence on screens both big and small, fitting in best I. ensemble pieces such as Den of Thieves. Sure, he may not have the legacy of the series’ original intent, but he should do just about all he needs to.
50 Cent has a pretty consistent onscreen relationship with Sylvester Stallone. In addition to the upcoming fourth Expendables movie, 50 Cent shares credits with Sly in the entire Escape Plan trilogy, playing a close partner to Stallone’s Ray Breslin. He also recently paired with The Expendables 3 co-star Mel Gibson in Boneyard, which went to the Cannes market this year. Bet you never thought you’d see “50 Cent” and “Cannes” in the same sentence!
The Expendables 4 will also have 50 Cent teaming with Fox, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Tony Jaa, Randy Couture, and more as they take on Iko Uwais’ main antagonist terrorist.
