Eminem signs new movie deal
Eminem has reportedly signed a new movie deal, despite earlier claiming that his acting career was over.

IMDB states that the rapper's contract is with Hollywood-based talent agency International Creative Management and involves taking a role in the upcoming western Have Gun - Will Travel. Eminem - real name Marshall Mathers III - will play a gunslinger named Palladin in the film - a remake of the 1950s television show.

The 34-year-old performer, who won praise for his acting in Curtis Hanson's 8 Mile, is reported to have recently turned down $8 million to star alongside Samuel L. Jackson in the science-fiction thriller Jumper.
