50 Cent 'wants romantic comedy role'

50 Cent has revealed that he would like to star in a romantic comedy.

The rapper made his big screen debut in 2005 with semi-autobiographical action film Get Rich or Die Tryin', in which he played a gun-toting drug dealer. He also featured in 2006's Home of the Brave as a soldier returning home from the Iraq War and 2008 thriller Righteous Kill.

The Dead Man Running star has now admitted that he is looking to break away from action roles.

He told Glamour: "Of course [I would appear in a romantic comedy], but it has to be believable and I have to feel I can bring the character to life. I'd do a romantic comedy if I liked the script."
