There has been talk of Slim Shady putting out a new album soon. It's high time that he does because fans have been clamoring for one for a long while now. And if rumors are to be believed, it looks like fans can also look forward to another film about the rapper.

According to reports, Byron "Big Naz" Williams, a former bodyguard of the Detroit rapper, has claimed that a new movie based on his book is in the works. Williams released a book titled "Shady Bizzness: Life as Marshall Mathers' Bodyguard in an Industry of Paper Gangsters" back in August 2000. Whether or not a film really is in development 16 years later remains unconfirmed. However, if it does push through, Williams has said that Danny DeVito and Ron Howard will feature in the film.

Rumors have been plaguing Eminem's supposed new album as of late. One rumor states that one track may be about Canadian rapper Drake. The speculation stems from a reported rap battle between the two, but that has since been quashed.

A new album and a new film may be just what Eminem needs right now. FX News Call reports that the rapper's absence from Forbes' top earners list may have raised a few red flags. Despite not releasing new work, Eminem has previously managed to be included on the list. However, a recent issue of the said list did not see his name. And while this may be an indication that the rapper is going through some financial problems, it's also possible that his earnings are just not what they used to be.

As for a release date, since the album's existence has not even been confirmed, it does not seem likely that a launch will be announced soon. Since these are all just rumors, fans should take this news with a grain of salt for now.
