Cent’s partner at Cheetah Vision Randall Emmett will be producing the film.The rapper will be joining Nicolas Cage who has taken the lead as a State Trooper investigate the Butcher Baker case. The Butcher himself will be played by John Cusack, who rarely gets to step up and play the bad guy. And Vanessa Hudgens, ofandquasi-fame, will be baring skin again as one of the would-be victims who managed to escape.Emmett says that Cent has moved a bunch of tour dates around to make sure he can be committed to the film, a gesture that proves he actually does care about making his career as an actor work and isn’t just there for a quick dollar.
