Paramount and Interscope sign movie deal with Shady camp

Paramount Pictures has signed a deal with Jimmy Iovine and Eminem manager Paul Rosenberg for three films, starting with '50 Cent' film 'Locked and Loaded'.

Ah, that's what my life is lacking, a 50 Cent film. Well, never fear, because Viacom's Paramount Pictures and inked a deal with Interscope boss Jimmy Iovine and Eminem manager Paul Rosenberg which will see the creation of three new movies around the Slim Shady camp - presumably hoping to equal the $120 million success of 8 Mile. The first project will be 'Locked and Loaded', a film starring 50 Cent and based loosely around his life. The film should be released in late 2005 or early 2006.
