Justin Timberlake Joins Clint Eastwood and Amy Adams in TROUBLE WITH THE CURVE
Justin Timberlake is set to star in his first drama since David Fincher's The Social Network. THR reports that the musician-turned-actor will star opposite Amy Adams and Clint Eastwood in Trouble with the Curve. The Warner Bros. drama will see Eastwood's long-time producing partner Robert Lorenz making his directorial debut.
The "road drama centers on an aging baseball scout (Eastwood) who goes on a road trip to search for new talent while trying to save his relationship with his adult daughter (Adams), a rising attorney who is on the verge of being promoted to partner." Timberlake will play "a young scout who may be Adams’ love interest." Warner Bros. plans a March start date in Atlanta.
I have not liked any of the films I have seen him in aside from Social Network. He does seem to do well with other skilled actors, so starring opposite Eastwood and Adams.
