Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson outlined his growing vision for Shreveport’s entertainment industry during a fireside chat at the Shreveport Convention Center, revealing plans for new film productions, live events, and expanded entertainment venues throughout the city.
Jackson said production will begin at the Stageworks facility later this year as part of his expanding G-Unit Film & Television slate, which currently includes dozens of projects in development across multiple television networks. He also highlighted several Shreveport initiatives, including the G-Dome event venue, G-Unit Studios, the G-Stage performing arts theater, and future major boxing events.
Some of the upcoming projects will be developed in partnership with Samsung, giving productions access to emerging technology that has not yet been released to the public.
