Jim Sheridan, director of In America, directs 50 Cent rap biopic Get Rich or Die Tryin'
Hot on the heels of that last wacky post, comes another bit of “WTF news”. Jim Sheridan, director of In America and In the Name of the Father will be helming a semi-biopic about 50 Cent’s early, rough hard-knock life, Get Rich or Die Tryin’.
I’m speechless. Not because Jim Sheridan is not a competent director--because he is--but for all intents and purposes, this is a rap film. Let’s say this again--Jim Sheridan (who, I think, is Irish--lemme get back to you on that) is helming a film partially-based on 50 Cent’s life, probably to the tune of an all-rap soundtrack. This is so hilarious. Friggin’ hilarious.
Here’s the link to the page I got this news from. Either you will laugh right thurr or shake yurr head in disbelief. Good luck with the project, Mr. Sheridan.
