Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson is starring with Chris Klein, Adam Rodriguez and Richard T. Jones in "Caught in the Crossfire," a police corruption drama, according to Variety. Newcomer Brian Miller wrote the script and is directing.
Lensing is just getting underway in Grand Rapids, Mich.
Jackson's Cheetah Vision Films partner Randall Emmett is producing with R.D. Miller, who raised the equity to finance the film through his company Miller and Miller Films. Jackson is executive producer with Chris Lighty and Tim Roth.
The drama concerns two homicide detectives who find themselves caught in the crossfire of a gang-related homicide and a group of dirty cops. Jackson plays a gang-banger who becomes a reluctant informant.
Jackson and Emmett launched Cheetah Vision at Sundance. Aside from "Crossfire," they are producing "Jekyll and Hyde," the Abel Ferrara-directed retelling of the classic story that will star Jackson and Forest Whitaker. They are also planning another untitled drama they will self-finance as a star vehicle for Jackson, with Benny Boom ("Next Day Air") directing. Production will begin in October.
