Josh Landon plays reporter in Eminem's latest music video
DETROIT (WJBK) - A familiar face is in Eminem's latest music video.
The music video is for "Framed", a song on his "Revival" album that came out last year. The full video hasn't dropped yet, but Eminem just released a trailer -- and FOX 2 reporter Josh Landon plays a reporter named Stan Dresden from Channel 8 News.
Josh shot the scenes about a month ago in the middle of the night before coming into work. He says he had to show up outside of Marygrove College around 8 p.m., and they finally filmed his scene about 2 a.m. After that, he changed his suit and came into work at 3:30.
In the trailer, reporter Stan Dresden is at the scene of a police situation where Eminem has barricaded himself inside a house. Apparently, Eminem has escaped from an asylum and has been framed for a killing spree that's terrorized Detroit for the past two weeks.
Josh says he was up for about 24 hours to do the shoot, but that he'd do it all over again in a heartbeat. You can hear more from him about the experience in the video player above.
So, of course, the big question we all wanted to know -- did Josh get to meet Eminem?
Not officially, but, Josh did get to see Em in person. They passed each other in the hallway as Eminem was coming out of his dressing room. Josh says he was doing a freestyle rap to get himself in the zone to film.
The full music video was released April 3. You can watch that here if you can't see the embed below.
