The Detroit rapper is set to star in an upcoming film remake of the 1950s TV drama "Have Gun - Will Travel," according to Variety.
In the film, his first since 2002's semi-autobiographical "8 Mile," Eminem won't be connected to his musical persona in any way.
The original TV show followed professional gun-for-hire Paladin, played by Richard Boone, in San Francisco. The show's concept will be updated to modern times for the film, with Eminem playing a bounty hunter. The film will possibly be based in Detroit.
No definite timetable for the movie's production or release has been announced.
