Timberlake visits 'Love Guru'

Justin Timberlake will star opposite Mike Myers in comedy 'The Love Guru'

Having already worked with Mike Myers voicing Artie in 'Shrek the Third', Justin Timberlake is set to re-team with the comedy superstar on 'The Love Guru'.

The singer, who recently tried his hand at acting in the likes of 'Alpha Dog' and 'Black Snake Moan', will play a sports star in the forthcoming comedy, which stars Myers as an American raised by spiritual men on an Ashram in India.

Myers’ character returns to America and makes a fortune in the self-help business, hitting the big time when he provides marriage counselling for a hockey star. Said player’s wife retaliates by dating Timberlake, a rival player in the league.

Jessica Alba and Verne Troyer will also appear in the pic, which is set to roll before cameras in Toronto next month.
