Romance for Jason Sudeikis and Justin Timberlake
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Animation, Comedy, Prime Time, FOX,
Justin Timberlake will soon be “pairing up” with Jason Sudeikis for a project outside of Saturday Night Live.
Next February, the two actors will both voice gay characters in an episode of The Cleveland Show.
“Terry [voiced by Jason Sudeikis] falls in love with a guy voiced by Justin,” creator Rich Appel revealed. Of course, Timberlake - who has made people laugh with late-night sketches like “Motherlover” - should have no problem tackling this role. “Justin is just hysterical!” Appel added.
The singer also has a few big screen projects heading to theaters this year. Justin can be heard as the voice of Boo-Boo Bear in the movie version of Yogi Bear opening December 17. Meanwhile, The Social Network - co-starring Jessie Eisenberg - debuts on October 1.

In the broadcast to air on May 2, Kanye (a.k.a Kenny West) gets into a rap battle with Cleveland Brown Jr. Of course, there is a girl (Oscar nominee Taraji P. Henson) at the center of all of this.
