It’s been ten years since Cher graced the silver screen as she gets ready to join Christina Aguilera in Burlesque, a contemporary musical with Steven Antin directing from a script he wrote.
Variety reports that Aguilera will play an ambitious small-town Iowa girl with a big voice who comes of age in a neo-burlesque club on Sunset Boulevard that’s run by Tess (Cher), a former dancer who struggles to keep the club open and gives the young girl a chance to shine.
While we’ve heard Cher’s voice in many films, Burlesque will mark the first time that we will see her sing on the silver screen in a film she stars in. Tea With Mussolini in 1999 was her last starring role in film.
