50 Cent trademarks two television titles, as he signs an eight-figure production deal

Looks like 50 Cent is planning to double down on his recent move into television, signing an eight-figure deal with network Starz and trademarking a number of properties for use in future productions.

50 Cent’s crime thriller Power has been a surprise success for Starz Originals, recently being renewed for a fifth season.
