Justin Timberlake to return to music

Justin Timberlake fans who would rather he have them " nekkid before the end of this song " than gallivant off to star in films may have their wishes granted – well, in part. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Timberlake will write the soundtrack for a new film, The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea, which stars his fiancee, Jessica Biel. Timberlake's involvement was part of the film's announcement this week at Cannes, according to reports . The 31-year-old will compose the score for the feature, as well as working as music supervisor, choosing other artists' songs for the soundtrack. The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea, due to start shooting later this year, follows the story of a widower and a young girl who build a raft to sail across the Atlantic. Set in New Orleans and directed by Bill Purple, it will star Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Chloe Moretz and Jessica Biel, Timberlake's partner for the last five years. The couple are expected to marry this summer.
