Get ready for a lot of 50 Cent in your life soon. Not only is his Starz drama Power coming this summer and his new album Animal Ambition set to release June 3—but also, according to The Hollywood Reporter, he'll star in the upcoming action spy comedy, Spy.

The movie is directed by Paul Feig, and centers on Melissa McCarthy, who plays a newbie CIA analyst on her first assignment. 

Spy also stars Jude Law, Jason Statham and Nia Long. No word on what exactly Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson's roll will be, but production is set to begin later this month in Budapest, Hungary.
