Our friends at WSNX in Grand Rapids spoke to Randall Emmett, Curtis ’50 Cent’ Jackson’s producing partner, last week about the their relationship with the city of Grand Rapids.
The pair have filmed several movies in GR including SetUp, which brought a few big name stars to the area, including Bruce Willis and Ryan Phillippe, and Randall promised their next project will do the same.
Regarding Freelancers, which begins filming next month, Randall told The Morning After:
This weekend we are going to announce the movie [Freelancers] at the Berlin Film Festival and we are going to announce the two stars that will accompany Curtis Jackson in that movie and they are very big stars, people in Grand Rapids will be very excited and it’ll be very exciting. Two big movie stars will be coming to Grand Rapids in March/April.
Randall also said that Grand Rapids has been “phenomenal” for their films, adding, “I love GR.”
You can hear Randall’s full interview here.
Stay tuned for more information about who those two big stars are and for more details about when shooting will begin!
