Method Man plays Davis Maclean on 50 Cent's show Power Book II.

The role was originally supposed to go to T.I. but was recast before filming started.

According to Power star Gianni Paolo, beef may have been behind the change.

 "I heard T.I. was supposed to play Method Man's character. And then, I don't know if there was a beef or something happened but then he never wound up playing him and Method was Davis Maclean," Paolo, who plays  Brayden Weston, said.

50 Cent recently made up with Floyd Mayweather.  So perhaps that put a strain on his relationship with Tip.

Anyway, T.I. is pretty toxic these days, thanks to dozens of allegations of sexual improprieties.  Maybe even too toxic for no-chill Fif.
