Andre 3000 is apparently to compose, produce and star in a new musical. According to Variety.com the OutKast star will write the music for an as-yet-untitled production with a libretto by the Tony award-winning lyricist Jeff Whitty and will also appear in it playing "someone with magical powers, who comes into the lives of a family." Sounds thrilling.
The singer-turned-actor will next be seen on screen in Outkast's own musical, provisionally entitled "My Life In Idlewild", and he is currently filming family drama "Four Brothers"
with Mark Wahlberg. Future Andre projects include an appearance in Guy Ritchie's new movie "Revolver" and some voice work in the all star animated film version of children's classic
"Charlotte's Web", alongside Julia Roberts and **John
Cleese**.
