Detroit legend Eminem will play Richard Wershe Jr., known as “White Boy Rick,” in 50 Cent’s upcoming Starz drama TV Series, based in Detroit.
The show, ‘BMF,” (Black Mafia Family) is based on the story of two brothers, Demetrius “Big Meech” Flenory and Terry “Southwest T” Flenory, who came from Detroit and led one of the most influential crime families in the United States in the 1980s.
Eminem will be playing Wershe Jr. also known as White Boy Rick, who was an FBI informant in Detroit during the 80s. Unfortunately, he will be in only one episode.
50 Cent confirmed the news via his social media accounts! You can check out the announcement and the trailer of the show below:
