50 Cent Files Lawsuit Against Movie Producer Ryan Kavanaugh to Block Release of SkillHouse Film

50 Cent has taken legal action against renowned movie producer Ryan Kavanaugh in an effort to prevent the release of the horror film SkillHouse, in which he is credited as both an actor and co-producer. The rapper and actor, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, filed the lawsuit after claiming that he never signed a final agreement with the film’s producers, despite being involved in its production.

According to the lawsuit, SkillHouse was filmed in 2022, with 50 Cent involved in the project from the outset. However, 50 alleges that while he and Kavanaugh discussed the details of a potential deal, no formal contract was ever signed between the two parties. The lawsuit goes on to state that the rapper was used in the promotional campaign for the film, including the use of his image, without his consent or any legal agreement in place.

50 Cent claims that he would not have agreed to appear in SkillHouse unless he had been granted creative input on the project. He also alleges that, despite his significant involvement, he has not been paid for his work on the film or for the use of his likeness in promotional materials.

In his legal filing, 50 Cent is seeking to block the release of SkillHouse and is demanding $5 million in damages for the alleged breach of contract and unpaid compensation. The lawsuit is a continuation of the public feud between 50 Cent and Kavanaugh, which has been simmering for some time.

Following the news of the lawsuit, 50 Cent took to social media to express his frustrations with Kavanaugh, posting a message on Instagram that read, “I didn’t get paid I’m afraid I’m gonna need that by Monday. You already know the vibes!” This statement, laced with his signature humor and boldness, reflects the rapper’s stance on the matter and his insistence on fair treatment.

The legal dispute should come as no surprise given that 50 Cent had already voiced his dissatisfaction with Kavanaugh and the film’s production on Instagram earlier in the week. In a post, 50 Cent warned that the film could not be released without his signature, further questioning the business practices surrounding the project. “What kinda business are they doing? I’d hate to have to demonstrate,” he wrote, hinting at his willingness to take further action if the issue wasn’t resolved.

As of now, Ryan Kavanaugh has not publicly responded to the lawsuit or the social media comments from 50 Cent. The legal proceedings are still in their early stages, and the outcome remains uncertain. However, the drama surrounding SkillHouse and the ongoing dispute between the rapper and producer highlights the challenges that can arise in the entertainment industry, particularly when it comes to contracts, compensation, and creative control.

50 Cent’s involvement in SkillHouse had generated some buzz, and the controversy surrounding the film’s release only adds to the tension. Fans and industry insiders will be closely watching as the legal battle unfolds and as 50 Cent continues to assert his authority in the world of film production and promotion.
