Samuel L. Jackson says he won't work with 50 Cent

Proud Jackson turns down Sheridan movie role

Samuel L Jacjson has turned down the chance to work with one of his movie icons - because it's in a film starring 50 Cent.

The actor has always wanted to work with Irish movie-maker Jim Sheridan and was thrilled when he heard he was being targeted for a new film by the In America director - and then he realised the role was opposite rapper 50 Cent in his movie debut.

The actor has been extremely vocal about sharing the stage with unproven actors, and felt he had to turn down Sheridan's offer.

He says: "Hollywood people tend to think that because one is successful in one aspect of entertainment they can bring them into this particular world and make a success out of them.

"They ask people like me to be in a film with those people that they are kind of headlining and your name ends up behind them.

"If you do that, it sanctions the fact that these people come into this world and you think they are worthy of you sharing your time on screen with them. I don't particularly think that.

"A month or so ago, someone called me about the 50 Cent movie and I'm like: 'What are you calling me for?' I don't even need to read that because that's not something I want to do.

"I like listening to 50 Cent and I can groove to his music but I don't want to groove to him on screen, just yet. Maybe if he does five movies and he shows some talent.

"I mean how does he get to work with Jim Sheridan and I don't? What is it about 50 Cent that makes Jim Sheridan say: 'I'd really like to make a movie with him'?"

I think he is probably one of the best actors out there period!! He shouldn't have to play second fiddle to anyone! Even more so to someone that isn't even in the same galaxy as he is. He already gets looked over for sorry "other" actors!! Not a rapper too!!! :eek: :eek:

[wompwomp]

yea I watched Pulp Fiction from a film critics pov and was shocked.

Dude is real

[ScandilousP]

Well, Samuel Jackson talked about WHY NOT CLICK ON REPORT INSTED TO REPORT BAD LINK with unproven Rappers last year. I mean, you can't blame this guy. He has to keep his outstanding image he has. The guy has done 60 major movies!!! 60!!!

[tru]

g g g ggggg...no, i dont blame the man for what he said...

[lowdown]

Much props to Samuel for keeping it real and not just jumping in just to get pay on a project that could possibly ruin his career

[blaxsoul00]

That's keepin it real; Can't blame the man for WHY NOT CLICK ON REPORT INSTED TO REPORT BAD LINK with 50 and not being show cased as the lead......

[j-chizzle]

I Feel Ya On That

[kaleal crooks]

very very dope, jus cuz u got a name behind u dont mean u qualified to do everything..............

[lildeisal]

i feel sam on this

[iluv2fuq73]

If it was just about anyone else, I'd say that they were being too full of themself. Sam, on the other hand, is on a whole different level then most of the people in the industry and can say whatever the hell he wants. he has earned that status. besides, how many bad movies have to come out before they realize that rappers (with the exception of cube, queen latifah, and mos def) do not belong in movies. Everything with Ja Rule in it sucks just cause he's in it.

he is he absolutely right

[nertjack]

i totally agree with samuel!!!! 50 cent doesn't even have stage presentation when he is rapping!!!! i believe the industry is trying to pimp the consumers with 50 cents name!!!! beside samuel is starring in a movie with ice cube (XXX part 2)..

[stefanodimera3000]

Ditto what everyone else said.

[gotti_1]

I can't agree with Sammy on this ain't Ashanti in that
new movie Coach Carter she ain't PROVEN :mad:
he need to shut his ol ass up! I wonder how many
unproven actors that are non-rappers he has shared the
screen with? :rolleyes:

[dmanathers]

thats right. 50 cent shouldn't be allowed to make movies anyway

[BiGDooKie101]

I think unlike 50, Ashanti is more talented and cultured for that unlike the rawness of 50 only fit to play some ol thug shit... besides mos, LL, cube, queen, ice-t and maybe busta i can't think of any other artist that can do the dam thing... i don't blame him one bit... thats like a maybach sharing a parkin spot with an escort gt...

The difference with her role in Coach Carter is she isn't playing lead of Samuel L. She is a co-star! and playing a supporting cast role.

[bgman0600]

He made a movie with wooden ass vin deisel, how much worse than him can 50 cent be? Besides, This is movies man, we've all seen non actors give good performances, and so called "real" actors suck! mos def, will smith, ice cube, queen latifah and mark wahlberg were all shitty actors once, you gotta give people a chance. P.S. Cam'ron was good as hell in paid in full, better than a whole lotta people samuel l jackson was in flicks with! I didn't forget that Shaft bullshit (except for my man that played peoples)

[nertjack]

50 cents should only work with the likes of Anna Nicole or Andy Dick!!!! He hasn't even prove himself as a rapper!!!!! The boy is just a by-product of dr. dre's awesome beats!!!!! He better develop his craft before he has a Ashlee Simpson boo-boo!!!!

[ESPEZY]

Cant nobody tell sam shit!

Money
and that's about some bullshit.
Sam is the man.

[grendel]

i dont care what no one says, Samuel L Jackson acts the same way in all his movies, without err..

weather a corrupt cop, disgruntled school teacher, hustler, drill instructor or whatever, there is always a point in the movie where he squints his former crackeye, and starts raising his voice to put the fear in someones heart...

[midnitescorpio]

ya gotta do what you gotta do

Every actor has shit like that.

for instance tom cruise in vanilla sky watch that movie then watch any other movie that he has played in...

he uses his Charm just as he would in a mission impossible

[younghov]

shit i don't blame him

[smooveblk]

I feel u SLJ. Because if Samuel said he wanted to come out with a hip hop joint featuring 50, errybody would tell his ass to stick to acting!

[mrdurtydawg]

I dont blame that dude. I would do the same thing too!

[Souperman]

i agree with him 100%

[Red Dynasty]

he is right. cat would be mad is he came out with rap album and wanted 50 on it so he could sell reords

[SONER]

preach on sam...preach on

[Cirus]

El Jacko gotz a point, he is keepin it jiggy, he just sint down 4 50 & his chaka chaka talent

[solomunder]

Can't argue with the man

[jokerr_utd_00]

I agree with Samuel. He's at the top of his game, why would he come down to the level of someone who has never been on screen before. 50's wac

not dissin u or ne thing but u need to read more. he did say that ashanti cannot act and still does see why she was in it. he did that movie because it was a role he wanted to do and alse he is the star of it not ashanti. so i dont blame him for not doin this cuz am sure 50 cent wouldnt put him in one his songs.

[..HoMicyDe..]

50 dont look like tha acting type

[MAgicman83]

i agree with sam he had to work hard to get where he is at and he had to make a name for his self but just because 50 has street fame he gets a starting role do you know how many lame ass roles sam had to take before he got 1 starting role i would be mad too

[each1reach41]

Sam worked hard from the bottom up to gain his status.
Na he shouldnt compromise his talent for someone that
hasnt paid any dues. Ya think they could "use" Al Pachino,
Val Kilmer, Robert denirro, or Densel Washington to play nex
to 50 hell no and they didnt waist they time askin.

This is the level of Sam and he told them right. :cool:

[k warrior]

50 is cool but I can't see him opposite of Sam...........not a good image

[knuschit]

i mean i feel him on that but at the same time he sounds like he's been drinkin some haterade..."how come he gets to work with Jim and i don't boo hoo" sam should have kept it real and be like "fuck 50 hell naw i aint doin a movie with him"

That's real! LMAO!

[OVAKYLL]

I've heard him say he wouldn't work with rappers before but he never said why...reading this I fully agree with and respect what he's saying.. Sam Jack keepin it real... fuck it.. I won't work with 50 either.... :cool:

[jpark442]

Well I guess that LL is a proven actor to S. Jackson. Pay your dues on the big screen and good luck 50.

[BlindPPLCMeSHYNE]

ditto for that, pimpin'....50 cent can't even talk straight in real life...how is he gonna be acting, speaking lines on the big screen?

[sxybodynika]

haha, i don't blame him!

[wompwomp]

nigga did about 85 movies or something i wonder who else up there in the 50+ range...

I know Bill cosby up there i seen that nigga on a western

[grendel]

these days, if you in a movie witha rapper...its just not good

i couldnt belive they through ja-rule in the mix "assault on precing 13"

Larry Fishburne
John Leguizamo
Ethan Hawke
Ja Rule

which one of these is not like the other??

[momo]

2-pac and marky-mark can kinda act..rest of them rappers cant

[dus]

i support Samuel L.Jackson

[lawrence1980]

If you don't want to do a movie with someone don't do it. I like some of the movies I've seen with him but he does seem to play the same role. He doesn't put a spin on any of his characters. I feels like your watchin the same character in a different setting and clothes.

[Juggaknox]

sam is the man

[Hi-Life]

Samuel believes what he is doing is true art. I don't blame him for his comments and actions. I bet 50 would turn down a song with Samuel L. Jackson if Dre said he would produce it. 50 would feel like Samuel aint gonna be his caliber of a music artist, just the same way Sam feels 50 is not the caliber actor he is. You feel me?

[bigedward81]

who cares

[lilh2daizzo]

sraight to the point

[diamond4981]

Samuel is smart for doing that one the 50 movie might suck

ashanti wasnt really a main character in this movie so its totally different but 50 will be the starring character and that may atrract more negative attention to sam

[corbra2145]

he right Sam ain't hurting for no money anyway so turning down roles is no big deal

[blakkmagik]

when u thik about it. Sam is a very experienced actor. Rappers arent very good actors, and working with one of them would decrease Sam's level of creativity through the viewers eye. U cant put a professional actor in an ameteur movie, point blank.

[Godi708]

He has a point.

[sincere2k5]

what more can i say about this topic yall said it all..i agree

true that

[amen-ra]

well sam has a valid point

[gallah]

sam L is supposed to be this great actor, bullshit! He ad-lib the word nigga every chance he get (Pulp fic). The fact that he did not read the script lets me know he full of shit!

[Strife99x]

samuel needs to get his ego in check and stop being so selfish. He should be looking out for 50 and try and help him improve his acting skills. "Each one teach one"

[chrisjc]

are you serious will smith and all the others wack?????????/ you must be outa your mind will smith did some of the best watch some real tv he is a star from the very begging of his acting carrier and the other to. will did independince day tat was the best movie so you cant put will smith and ice cube in the same library as 50 o and do you see wat 50 is up to today he is crazy sam is to much beta than tat

[YungB]

I respect sam on that he got a valid point. 50 aint proving so he isnt going to work with him on just on the strength of his name. Sam's a vet so i cant disagree

[$!cKaM0re]

Samuel L is a acting Icon, he can do what he wants in the business...Fvck 50

[torch11]

50 cent shouldn't even thinking about starring in a movie or better yet being in a movie because there is a 99 out of 100 chance of him gettin shot on set. Samuel Jackson can't take 9 bullets or even 1 bullet Shit he to old he might start cryin b.

[Prince0TheCity]

no1 can say it better

[killasam1000]

Sam was the man till now he betta stop acting dumb and Cut that CHECK

[acac]

Man why everbody hatin on 50 he just getting his money however he can get it you would do the same thing. And Sam is right he feels he to big time for that. Thats just like Sam want to do a song with 50 what you think he gone say.

[C_Rules]

lol im waitin for the 50 diss track to sam jackson u know its comin

[a-oh]

The truth

[militantmidget]

King Kong aint got shit on Sam L.

[Shawgrad]

?He has the right to work with whoever he wants to. He has been an actor for a long time and if he wants to not work with him so be it.

[diplomatz25]

he just scared fifty act better than him,

<div align="right"><{POST_SNAPBACK}> (index.php?act=findpost&pid=17271)[/quote]

That shit is on a completely different level. Here we have a high calibur actor that has done magnificent work in his career no matter how good or bad the movie is he still lead his role to the fullest.
Now if we have a high-calubur actor wanting to work with a certain Director/Writer or whatever the case may be then this Director must be some hot shit!
Here we have a high calubur wanting to work with a director he admires and looks upto and now that he has the chance he finds out he's going to be second best to some rapper that got famous just because of his survival of being shot nine times, is known to make beef/controversy over he say she say bullshit and has NO acting experience other than his "gangsta not wanksta" persona and the DVD's in his own albums? Then you got the nerve to say "what about ashanti? he worked with her" Nigga the only name you see pop up when someone even thinks or speaks about coach carter is SAMUEL L JACKSON he was the main star not Ashanti's co-star

There is a big difference between working with a actor/rapper/singer that has no acting experience as a co-star in some movie that is mainly targeted for the youth and playing second best to an actor/rapper/singer with no experience in a movie with a director that you've always wanted to work with/admired.

If i was in Samuel's shoes I'd feel insulted which I bet he does

[bulldawg3111]

[richbizzle]

Jim Sheridan is looking at those dollars and how hip hop has taken over in every facet of entertainment from sports to commercials to movies.

[Registered Breast OffendHer]

i wont disagree with the man , he made alot of good points and hes in the right to say what he said.

[farrellcityking]

lol@ "What is it about 50 Cent that makes Jim Sheridan say i wanna work with him"

COME THE FUCK ON PEOPLE

if that isn't the most display example of hating i've ever read.....i mean, this nigga actually said "Why does 50 Cent get to work with Jim Sheridan and i don't".......WTF?

Bottom line, Sam just wanted TOP BILLING.....and due to the fact the movie was about 50 CENT there was no way he was going to get it


smh....y'all kill me

[ihackwin]

Biel, Ricci and 50 Cent Joining Brave
Source: Variety February 10, 2006


Jessica Biel, Christina Ricci and Curtis "50 Cent" Johnson are joining Samuel L. Jackson and Brian Presley in director Irwin Winkler's Iraqi wartime drama Home of the Brave for Winkler's production company and Emmett/Furla Films.

The story, from a screenplay by Mark Friedman, revolves around three soldiers who struggle to readjust to normal life after returning home from a lengthy tour in Iraq. Jackson will play a doctor who tries to resume his routine, only to find himself unraveling.

Financed by Avi Lerner's Millennium Films and Emmett/Furla, the independent film is budgeted at $12 million. Winkler will begin shooting next month in Morocco. Production will then move to Spokane, Wash.

im shocked to see someone still "keeping it real", as cliche as that phrase has become. im not shocked that is sam jackson tho. 50's losing his credability as a rapper(if he had any to begin with), now they expect him to hold his on next to sam. bitch please. i saw half of "get rich.." and that shit was so ugh. 50 cent is a cash cow now, he's hot in the music bizz put him in some movies. same shit happened to ja fool, now his music and movie career is a non-factor. you go to the movies you want to see the character not 50 cent. only real actors can pull that off. kill the machine people.
