The Flaming Lips' Wayne Coyne has said he wants musician/actor Justin Timberlake to star in a new film he is currently making.
Coyne told Billboard in a recent interview that he's working on new film of his own that will be his first since Christmas On Mars which was released in November 2008.
The musician stated the film would similar to his past works as it would star his bandmates, friends and family in Oklahoma City but he is interested in having Timberlake make a cameo appearance.
"
I'm going to try to get real actors too," said
Coyne. "
I'm in the process of begging Justin Timberlake to be part of it; if I'm lucky I'll be able to wear him down in another year."
As Coyne's last film project took seven years to be completed, the artist said he's unsure if his new project would take that long to be finished.
"I think everybody would be relieved if it all got done in six weeks and we could say, 'Look at that!' But because I get to do it with people I love and it's my art, I don't care how long it takes!"
Coyne's last film Christmas On Mars was written and directed by himself and featured actors such as Steve Burns, Adam Goldberg and Fred Armisen.
