After the successful launch of the 50 Cent Action channel in the United Kingdom on Prime Video in June, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson has debuted another action channel on the streaming platform, Pluto TV.
The launch took place on the Queens businessman’s 50th birthday, July 6. The “Many Men” rapper took to his social media to let his followers know the news.
“What better way to celebrate my 50th than with another big drop 🙌 You can now watch @50CentAction for FREE on @plutotv!”

Billboard reported that the G-Unit producer has created another partnership with Lionsgate that will be presented on the Pluto TV platform. All content shown on the channel will be free to viewers who tune in. The movies and TV shows seen on Pluto TV are curated by 50 Cent.
“I’m excited to bring 50 Cent Action to Pluto TV. Building on the channel’s success, this is the next big step — and launching on my birthday makes it even bigger,” 50 Cent said in a written statement to the media outlet. “I’ve partnered with Lionsgate to deliver nonstop, high-powered entertainment, and now even more fans can watch for free.”
According to Deadline, the emcee-turned-television executive launched a subscription service overseas. The channel initially debuted Dec. 10 as a FAST channel on the Roku Channel. The partnership with Lionsgate has been mutually beneficial for both parties. In April, it was revealed that the 50 Cent Action channel was the top action channel on The Roku Channel and LG Channels. It’s also available on Prime Video, Plex, DirecTV, Vizio, and Xumo.
Unlike in the United States, viewers in the United Kingdom have to pay to watch 50’s Action Channel. It’s a Prime Video add-on for £3.99 ($5.43) a month. People can test the service out with a seven-day free trial.
“Being able to launch out here [in the UK] is big because I have a huge audience here that hasn’t been able to participate with us,” the rapper and businessman said. “Now they get a chance to see it.”
