Guardian brands 50 Cent's boxing drama 'Fightland' 'farcical' and 'featherweight'

The Guardian has dismissed 50 Cent's eight-episode boxing crime drama "Fightland" as "farcical" and "featherweight." The Sky Atlantic series, executive-produced by Curtis Jackson's G-Unit Film & Television and shot entirely in London, was criticised on August 27, 2026 for unclear character motivations, unconvincing fight scenes, and pulling back from the excess it promises.
