Kim Kardashian and 50 Cent were photographed on set this week as production continued on Netflix’s upcoming comedy The Fifth Wheel. The film, directed and produced by Eva Longoria, is currently shooting in Los Angeles.
Kardashian arrived dressed in an all-black outfit while preparing for scenes, as cameras rolled on what appeared to be a club sequence. 50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, was also seen between takes wearing a chain and cap as he moved through the set.
The Fifth Wheel marks another major acting role for Kardashian as she continues expanding her presence in film and television. The project is being produced for Netflix, adding to the platform’s growing slate of original comedy films.
According to production details, comedian Nikki Glaser and actress Brenda Song portray high school best friends who reunite for a trip to Las Vegas. The story centers on their getaway, which takes an unexpected turn when Kardashian’s character enters the picture. She reportedly plays a charismatic outsider who disrupts the dynamic of the longtime friend group, leading to tension and self-reflection among the characters.
50 Cent has also joined the ensemble cast, with some scenes reportedly filmed at Exchange LA in downtown Los Angeles. The film blends comedy with themes of friendship, adulthood, and complicated relationships.
Netflix has not yet announced an official release date for The Fifth Wheel, but filming is actively underway.
