50 Cent Follows Through on Skill House Movie Lawsuit


Last week rapper 50 Cent warned film producer Ryan Kavanaugh not to release the "Skill House' movie featuring 50, because he never signed off on it [click here if you missed that].

50 makes good on his threat...

From TMZ
TMZ Hip Hop obtained legal docs filed by 50 on Thursday, making good on the social media warnings he's been sending to GenTV's owner, Ryan Kavanaugh, about taking legal action to try to block the rollout.
According to the documents, 50 says he looked past Kavanaugh's controversial past and provided his acting talents for the movie after they sketched out the basic terms of a deal ... with the expectation they would reach a final agreement and sign a contract.
He says his trust regarding that last part needing his John Hancock would happen was misplaced!!!
50 says, even though they never inked a deal, Kavanaugh still went ahead and plastered the rapper's name, image, voice and likeness all over "Skill House" promotional materials ... billing him as a star and producer.
50 insists he would never have agreed to be associated with the project unless he could include his creative input on it to ensure it met his standards ... and, to make matters worse, he says he hasn't been paid a dime for the use of his services and image rights in connection with the film.
50 is demanding "Skill House" be blocked from release, and he wants no less than $5 million in damages ... plus punitives!
