This skit appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live the night of the Oscars and features 50 Cent in a remix trailer for Zero Dark Thirty.
In this skit, the name of the movie is Zero Dark Fifty and rapper 50 Cent is a lone assassin sent in to kill Osama Bin Laden. The clip is entirely created as a mockery of the actual Zero Dark Thirty movie, but it also has elements which mock 50 Cent himself. 50 Cent has now appeared in over 20 movies and has focused more and more on his acting skills.
In the trailer, 50 Cent tells his boss Osama Bin Laden is actually staying in a storage locker in the United States.
