Cher has signed on to join Christina Aguilera in the Screen Gems' musical 'Burlesque' -- read on for more movie details!

Aguilera will play a talented singer from a small town who finds success and love while performing at a burlesque club. Cher will play Tess, a former dancer who runs the Los Angeles club, Variety reports.

Screen Gems President Clint Culpepper tells Variety that he is excited about Cher's involvement in the film. "She brings a soulfulness and gravitas to this character that will ground the story," he tells the trade paper. "The only person who was more excited than I am is Christina."

'Burlesque' will be the first movie that the legendary performer will sing and star in since her role in 'Tea with Mussolini' in 1999.
