Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson is going to host a show for Fox Nation, the Fox News-owned streaming platform.
Jackson will host and executive produce the true crime series, 50 Ways to Catch a Killer, which will premiere on Fox Nation Sept. 16. Jackson’s G-Unit Film & Television is producing the series alongside Lionsgate Alternative Television.
The six episode series “offers viewers a deep journey inside investigative units as they unravel real-life murder mysteries and uncover critical breakthroughs all leading to the prime suspect and pursuit of justice,” Fox says.
“We are thrilled to partner with Curtis ’50 Cent’ Jackson to bring his distinctive voice and perspective to this gripping investigative series,” said Jason Klarman, Fox News Media chief digital officer and CMO. “With his cultural influence and talent for storytelling, he offers a front-row seat to the dogged investigations that lead to justice.”
“True crime is powerful because it’s real cases, real people, and real justice,” Jackson added. “With this series, I want viewers to experience the intensity of these investigations and the relentless work it takes to uncover the truth. We’re bringing these stories to life in a way that’s both gripping and authentic.”
Fox Nation has been leaning into lifestyle content, with a number of shows fronted or produced by high-profile talent like Kevin Costner, Martin Scorsese and homegrown talent like Sean Hannity. The streaming platform also recently got into the live sports business via a deal with Professional Bull Riders.
