Justin Timberlake To Co-Star With Ex Cameron Diaz In New Movie Bad Teacher

Justin Timberlake apparently doesn't have any problems working with an old flame.  According to the Hollywood Reporter, he's just landed the lead male role in a movie called Bad Teacher, a comedy that stars his ex-girlfriend, Cameron Diaz. 

The movie is about a seventh-grade teacher who's described as a "foul-mouthed gold digger."  After she's dumped by her boyfriend, she tries to poach the boyfriend of a colleague, because he's heir to a watch fortune.  As the male lead, we assume Justin will play the heir, while Cameron will play the gold digger.

Justin and Cameron were also both in Shrek the Third post-breakup, but that was just their voices -- they weren't actually on screen together.

Justin recently wrapped work on the upcoming movie The Social Network, about the founders of Facebook. He's also appeared in The Love Guru and Alpha Dog, among other films.
