G-Unit Films and Television Inc. (originally known as G-Unit Films) is an American film and television production company founded by rapper Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson in 2003.[1] The company produced documentaries based on the upbringing of Jackson or his affiliates. In 2008, Jackson founded a successor company, Cheetah Vision, in a joint venture with Randall Emmett, temporarily closing G-Unit Films until its revival in 2010, under the name G-Unit Films and Television Inc.[2]

In 2015, Jackson pitched television prospects to six different networks. Among them was Power, a Starz drama for which Jackson serves as a co‐star, co-creator, and executive producer. Jackson signed a two-year contract with Starz, with representation from the Agency for the Performing Arts. By the following year, ratings have proved successful for the network.[3][4][5][6]
Following his dissatisfaction with the Starz network, Jackson and Fox entered a non-exclusive broadcast direct deal to develop scripted dramas, live-action comedies and animated series through his production company G-Unit Film & Television. In 2023, Jackson purchased an in-house production facility (which was known as Millennium Studios) for the company, in a lease agreement with the city of Shreveport, Louisiana.[7]
