Eric Dane Joins Burlesque Cast

Well, it’s official: Eric Dane has joined the ensemble cast of the upcoming musical Burlesque. And if that’s not enough for you, check out who else is in it: Cher, Christina Aguilera, Stanley Tucci, Cam Gigandet, Kristen Bell and Alan Cumming. That’s a must-see production right there.

So what’s it about? The story revolves around “Ali, an ambitious small-town girl with a big-town voice who finds love, family and success in a neo-burlesque club.” Ali is played by Christina Aguilera. And who’s Eric Dane playing? He’ll be playing Marcus, a successful, charming businessman that tries to win Ali’s heart while also trying to buy out the burlesque club from Cher. I mean, Tess.

According to Variety, we can expect a release for Thansgiving – of 2010. So, still a bit to go. But I can’t wait to see this.
