50 Cent revolutionized the rap game and although he'll always be known as a rapper, Fif's made some big moves in television and film in recent times. These days, Fif's been focused a lot more on television. It was announced a few days ago that Power would be coming to an end after season six but Fofty's already readying his next project.  After teasing several shows on his Instagram page, the title of his new show has been revealed.

50 Cent previously revealed that he's producing a show about the story of Isaac Wright Jr., a former prisoner who was wrongfully convicted and sentenced to life in prison. The show is set to be titled, For Life which Variety confirmed earlier today. ABC has picked up the series for their 2019-2020 season. 

The show is described as "a serialized legal and family drama inspired by the life of Isaac Wright, Jr. about a prisoner who becomes a lawyer, litigating cases for other inmates while fighting to overturn his own life sentence for a crime he didn’t commit."

Fif is set to serve as an executive producer on the show which he created alongside Hank Steinberg. Isaac Wright Jr. will also serve as an executive producer. The show stars Nicholas Pinnock, Indira Varma, Joy Bryant, Glenn Fleshler, Dorian Missick, Tyla Harris, Mary Stuart Masterson, and Boris McGiver.
