US rapper Eminem is to make a film comeback in 3D effort Shady Talez, reports claim.
The Without Me star, who won a best song Oscar for Lose Yourself from the 8 Mile soundtrack, will also produce the film, described by ScreenDaily as "The Twilight Zone meets Creepshow".
A DJ Classicz/Davis Entertainment production, Shady Talez will be scripted by Uncle P screenwriter Dallas Jackson and Underworld story creator Kevin Grevioux, and will put a hip-hop spin on three classic horror stories.
The film will also lead to a four-issue comic book spin-off, due for release in 2010.
Should the reports prove accurate, Eminem's participation would prove his first film appearance since the semi-autobiographic 8 Mile in 2002.
The 37-year-old was named best male at Thursday night's MTV Europe Music awards (EMAs), though he was not present at the Berlin ceremony.
