Looks like 50 Cent is planning to double down on his recent move into television, signing an eight-figure deal with network Starz and trademarking a number of properties for use in future productions.

50 Cent's crime thriller Power has been a surprise success for Starz Originals, recently being renewed for a fifth season.

In light of his recent deal upgrade, which sees his contract with the network extended through until September 2019, he has filed television trademarks for 'Get Rich or Die Tryin'' and 'Hustler's Ambition' (the title of a 2005 single).

In addition he has three further projects currently in development with Starz, including a series based on the Black Mafia crime family, and a superhero series.

And in case you're doubting his commitment to celluloid excellence...
