Rapper 50 Cent has chosen an interesting location for his latest business venture. 50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, is opening a new film studio. Instead of launching the studio in Hollywood, the standard location for the movie industry, he made the decision to set things up in Shreveport, Louisiana, becoming the latest star to make a substantial move out of Los Angeles.
From the gritty narratives of the streets to the compelling stories that define our era, G-Unit has always been more than just entertainment; it’s a platform for voices that need to be heard, stories that need to be told," he continued. Jackson said the idea of bringing the film studio to Shreveport isn’t "just a business decision" but also "a commitment to fostering talent, creating opportunities, and building a community that thrives through creativity and innovation.
Last year, actor/producer Mark Wahlberg told Fox News Digital that when he moved his family out of Los Angeles to Las Vegas, he had plans to turn the city into "Hollywood 2.0" with the help of a new studio he planned to build. "We're looking to create 10,000 jobs on the studio alone," he said. "The average salary would be $100,000 more than what it is now.
In 2019, Tyler Perry hosted the grand opening of his own studio in Atlanta. In an interview with Gayle King for "CBS This Morning," he said, "I clearly believe that I’m ignored in Hollywood, for sure, and that’s fine. I get it." He continued, "My audience and the stories that I tell are African-American stories specific to a certain audience, specific to a certain group of people that I know, that I grew up, and we speak a language," he added.
