Alan Cumming has joined the cast of the musical “Burlesque” for Screen Gems says Variety.
Christina Aguilera plays an ambitious small-town girl with a big voice who finds herself at a neo-burlesque club.
Cumming will play the club’s gender-bending host and master of ceremonies. Cher, Stanley Tucci, Cam Gigandet, Kristen Bell and Julianne Hough also star.
Steve Antin directs the project which begins shooting next week.
