AceShowbiz - Eminem has booked out an entire cinema so fans can watch his new film "Bodied" for free.
The rapper has taken over a venue in Detroit for both Friday and Saturday night, November 02-03, to allow cinemagoers a first-look at his latest project, which he produced and also recorded a song for with Dr. Dre.
And on Thursday evening, Eminem, real name Marshall Mathers, was delighted to share his generous gesture with his Instagram followers.
"DETROIT! Come through and get #BODIED!" the 46-year-old wrote. "I bought out the theatre, so tickets on me for the Friday + Saturday @BodiedMovie 6:40pm screenings at the AMC 30 in Sterling Heights."
He noted that admission would be available on a first come, first served basis, and would also be limited to one ticket per customer on either night.
"Bodied" is a battle rap comedy-drama helmed by Korean-American director Joseph Kahn, who has previously worked on music videos for rappers such as Snoop Dogg and Scarface, as well as popstars Lady GaGa, Taylor Swift and Britney Spears, among others.
Kahn has also directed several music videos for Eminem, including "Without Me" and "Love the Way You Lie".
The feature tells the story of a progressive graduate student, played by Calum Worthy, who finds success and sparks outrage when his interest in battle rap as a thesis subject becomes a competitive obsession.
"Bodied" also stars Charlamagne tha God as a battle rap promoter, and was met with critical acclaim when it premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival.
