50 Cent gambles with career

The rapper will star in heist flick 'Live Bet', about the underground world of gambling clubs.

May 10 2006

Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson is set to star in 'Live Bet', a thriller about New York's illegal gambling networks.

It's not yet clear who the 'Get Rich or Die Tryin' star will play in the film, though the story revolves around underground clubs where members can bet on illegal car racing in Manhattan. The film will also involve a complicated heist.

Charley and Vlas Parlapanides have written the script, with the film set to go into production when 'Fiddy' finishes work on prison boxing flick 'The Dance'.
