Eminem To Star In Movie Western

Yahoo! Music, Jun 13, 2006 3:00 pm PDT
Eminem has agreed to appear in a new film as a bounty hunter, according to reports.

The rap star, who starred in the semi-autobiographical 8 Mile in 2003 to much acclaim, is understood to have agreed to appear in a movie adaptation of an old TV series.

Have Gun - Will Travel was originally broadcast in the 1950s and followed the antics of a gunfighter-for-hire. Apparently the program will be updated for the 21st century and will see Eminem adopting the role of bounty hunter, perhaps in his hope city of Detroit.

There are also suggestions that Eminem, who has expressed a desire to pursue new projects in recent months, will score the soundtrack for the movie.
