After cutting off ties with STARZ, 50 hopes to be able to shop his current series' to competing networks.

50 Cent announced that he was done with STARZ at the end of his current contract, earlier this year.

"This is me packing my stuff, STARZ," he wrote on Instagram at the time. "Sucks, my deal is up over here I’m out. They Renewed High town and FORCE is the highest rated show they have sitting in limbo. If I told you how much dumb sh*t I deal with over here. you would think they all went to school on a small yellow bus."
