Aug 26, 2015 Sounded like a great opportunity to me. It's pretty obvious this guy has no interest in become famous and relevant anymore. 8 million AND you get to stay home? Sign me up for that s---.
Aug 26, 2015 Depends who is or was attached to it. If production started now it would probably be in theaters in a year and a half, in that time he could have another solo project done. Imagine the hype/promo for a new Em album AND movie. Who knows, maybe playing that role would get him to make some inspired music as well. Not to mention 8 million dollars and the chance to film in your hometown, which would in turn help out the community.
Aug 26, 2015 Still if you're worth 180 million you can turn down 8 milli if you want to, especially if you don't like the project. Fif would never turn that down though lol
Aug 26, 2015 My guess is he is working on another project right now, which was the same reason he couldn't do Southpaw. I don't really want Eminem as an actor unless he's playing Eminem. Rappers get soft when they become actors.
Aug 26, 2015 Em could wipe his a--- with the 8 mil and still have a retirement fund hes set. So money doesn't sway him like it used to. If he's not feelin it then hes not scared to be vocal. And especially since hes close with fifty he wouldn't be scared to tell how it is.
Aug 29, 2015 Em did the right thing. If the synopsis isn't good, it is better not to do the film. At this level on his career, it has to be perfect.
