Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson is proving once again that he’s more than a rapper and entrepreneur—he’s now a pioneer in the world of action television. His new streaming platform, 50 Cent Action, has surged to the top of the charts, becoming the #1 action network on both The Roku Channel and LG Channels—a major achievement in the booming world of Free Ad-Supported Television (FAST).
A Breakout Hit on FAST Platforms
Launched exclusively on Roku, 50 Cent Action quickly captured viewer attention, becoming the platform’s most-watched action destination in its first quarter. Its debut on LG Channels mirrored that success, solidifying 50 Cent’s status as a powerful new voice in streaming media.
The success of the platform reflects Jackson’s keen understanding of what today’s audiences crave—high-quality, high-impact action content that’s available for free.
Now Available on Vizio and Sling TV
Building on that momentum, 50 Cent Action is now expanding its reach. This week, the channel launched on Vizio’s WatchFree+ and Sling TV’s Sling Freestream, bringing its content to even more households across America.
This milestone marks one of the first celebrity-led FAST channels to achieve such widespread distribution, blending star power, cinematic content, and direct fan engagement.
50 Cent to Speak at NewFronts Event
On May 5, Jackson will appear at the LG Ad Solutions NewFronts event alongside CEO Michael Hudes, where he’ll reflect on the platform’s rapid rise and share insights into his vision for the future.
“This is the future of entertainment,” Jackson said. “It’s about real connection. I’m hands-on and working closely with Lionsgate to give fans free access to the best action films and shows.”

The channel features a blockbuster-packed lineup, including Hollywood hits like:
- The Expendables
- Rambo
- Den of Thieves
- And more action-packed films from Lionsgate’s 20,000-title catalog
It also features content from the Power Universe, the acclaimed television franchise Jackson executive produced, which includes hit series like Power, Power Book II: Ghost, Raising Kanan, and more.
Industry Praise and Cultural Impact
Jim Packer, President of Worldwide Television Distribution at Lionsgate, praised Jackson’s innovation, calling him:
“A cultural icon with a deep bond to his audience. 50 Cent Action has already become a go-to destination for both viewers and advertisers.”
The channel not only entertains but also represents a shift in how creators are leveraging their platforms to distribute premium content outside traditional TV and subscription models.
A New Era of Action Entertainment
With bold ambition and lightning-fast growth, 50 Cent Action is rewriting the playbook for what a FAST channel can be—accessible, cinematic, and culturally relevant. As Jackson continues to expand his empire from music and film into tech and television, his latest success proves one thing: 50 Cent is always one step ahead of the game.
