Three years have passed since Righteous Kill and the two stars have gone their separate ways. 50 Cent has been working on several new projects over the past few years. The rapper has his own film company, which has been putting together several films. 50 is currently marketing his Things Fall Apart film.

Jessy Terrero is one of the most-respected filmmakers in the hip hop industry. He was the mastermind by the cult classic, Soul Plane. Before venturing into full-length films, Terrerro produced several of the most-memorable music videos. This includes 50 Cent's 2003 hit with G-Unit, "Stunt 101." Following the success of the video, Terrerro produced several other films for G-Unit, forging a friendship with 50 Cent. Over the years, Jessy Terrero has continued to expand and he is currently working on his Freelancers film and has put together an all-star cast.

Nelly and Snoop Dogg are no strangers to acting as their film and television roles are just as popular as their music. Recently, the two rappers were cast in an episode of The CW's "90210." The show has featured quite a few rappers in its short run.

Snoop Dogg has played in many films, including a few serious roles. However, the rapper's most-famous film role was likely Soul Plane. Snoop's scene will not be a major one on "90210." He will be shown at a local car wash in the episode, but Nelly's role will be a little bigger.

In 2005, Nelly made a famous appearance on The Longest Yard. Nelly has also made small appearances on such shows as "CSI: New York." His appearance on "90210" is a chance for Nelly to market his new music. In the episode, Nelly will be playing himself as he is filming a new video. There has not been any news about when the episode of the show will broadcast. It is likely to air sometime towards the end of the current season.
