Eminem Returns to Hollywood

2011-01-07 by zarkinfrood42 | 42 Comments
According to Vulture, Eminem has signed on to play the lead role in the film Random Acts of Violence, which is to be directed by David von Ancken (Seraphim Falls, Californication). This will mark his first real role (cameos notwithstanding) in a film since 2002's 8 Mile.

He has also recently been linked to Fernando Meirelles' (Blindness, The Constant Gardner) film 360, and Kurt Sutter's (Sons of Anarchy) boxing drama Southpaw.

"hopefully his talent in recent rapping doesn't transfer over to his acting."

I just heard him on Nicki Minaj's new album, and found his verse better than anything he's been doing on his last two albums.

I liked the album, pretty catchy, but yeah, she's better as a featuring artist, at least for now...

8 mile was pretty cool, but i'm guessing this doesn't have anything to do with that.

That would be crazy if he was in a Fernando Meirelles film. Seems very unlikely to me.

I'd prolly watch it. I'll either be falling out of my seat laughing hysterically at the bad acting or I'll be mildly impressed. He wasn't half bad in 8 mile.

You guys forgot about 2pac ? He did few movies that was pretty good (Poetic Justice, Gang Related..) To me, it will always be the rapper the most gifted of our time.. even if Eminem is great.
