Variety reports that Eric Dane (“Grey’s Anatomy”) will round out the ensemble cast of Screen Gems’ upcoming musical Burlesque.
Cher, Christina Aguilera, Stanley Tucci, Cam Gigandet, Kristen Bell and Alan Cumming have already boarded the project, written and to be directed by Steve Antin.
Opening November 24, 2010, Burlesque centers on Ali, an ambitious small-town girl with a big-town voice (Aguilera) who finds love, family and success in a neo-burlesque club. Dane will play Marcus, a charming, successful businessman who offers to buy Tess (Cher) out of the burlesque club and vies for Ali’s heart.
