Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson to serve as producer for Proxima Media's horror film 'Skill House'

KUALA LUMPUR, July 13 (Bernama) -- Proxima Media is officially in production on Skill House, the first instalment in the R-rated horror film franchise starring social media phenomenon and TikTok star Bryce Hall.

Since its spring announcement, Curtis ‘50 Cent’ Jackson will also produce through his G-Unit Film & Television and star in the film. UFC veteran and BKFC and AEW star Paige VanZant has also joined the cast.

In addition, renowned Emmy-winning special effects artist Steve Johnson is delivering some of the most realistic guts and gore fans will ever see.

“This film is bursting with mavericks of entertainment, many of them spanning multiple genres and platforms,” Proxima Media founder Ryan Kavanaugh said in a statement.

Regarding producing with 50 Cent, Kavanaugh adds: “From a global rap and hip-hop music icon to a businessman, actor, writer and producer - if anyone knows a thing or two about breaking the boundaries, it's 50 Cent. I'm honoured to work alongside him as we watch Bryce do the same with his career.”

A saw-like take that breaks into the phenomenon of social media fame and culture, Skill House offers an unflinching take on fame and what new celebrities are willing to do to attain it.

With an expected early 2023 release date, the project is financed and controlled by Proxima Media, owned and operated by Kavanaugh.
