Justin Bieber To Star In Basketball Movie


 Justin Bieber is set to star in a basketball movie set to be shot next year…his first ever foray into the big screen.

The “Under The Mistletoe” singer will be cast as a young basketball star opposite Mark Wahlberg, who totally approves the selection of Justin in the role, despite the Stratford, Ontario singer having had no previous experience acting in films, unless you count the documentary “Never Say Never”…

Wahlberg says he has an “intuition” that Justin is the perfect choice for the as-yet-untitled movie.

“I see the guy and spent time with him and you see what he does and how he does it, and then you actually have a conversation with him and it’s there,”

Wahlberg says of Justin. And he knows what he’s talking about. The former Marky Mark made a huge leap from rapper to A-list actor in the 90′s himself.

The upcoming film is a gritty drama in the tough world of street basketball, with Justin essaying the role of a young player taken in by an older mentor (Wahlberg). Paramount pictures is all set to start production on the movie this year.

New Year, new cap. Guess 2012 is Justin‘s big break into movies…are you as excited as we are?
