Romany Malco has revealed that Robert De Niro had convinced 50 Cent to portray a gangster rapper in the upcoming movie 'Last Vegas'.

The 70-year-old American actor had called up the 38-year-old American rapper and convinced him for a special appearance after director Jon Turteltaub failed to find an appropriate musician to take on the small role, Universal Pictures India reported.

The iconic actor who is great friends with the rapper offered to reach out to his 'Righteous Kill' co-star and invited him to the set.
