Elsewhere, 50 Cent, née Curtis Jackson, has selected Nicki Minaj for his animated series, Lady Danger.
Deadline reported that Minaj would lead the Amazon Freevee animated series, which is also executive produced by 50 and Nicki. The comic book show will be created under the businessman’s G-Unit Film & TV banner.
The Dark Horse comic takes place in 2075. It follows a government field agent left for dead by her unit after uncovering a dangerous secret, only to be resurrected as the titular character.
Reborn as Lady Danger, the agent is described as an “afro-futuristic a*s-kicking Agent of B.O.O.T.I (Bureau of Organized Terrorism Intervention).”
To complete her mission with no hiccups, Danger must suppress her true identity while fighting to exterminate villains threatening Earth and humanity’s livelihood.
