Samuel L. Jackson
Sam Jackson and Bernie Mac are set to star together in the comedy Soul Men for Dimension Films with a director to be named in the next couple of weeks.

The film was scripted by Robert Ramsey and Matthew Stone, the writing team behind Intolerable Cruelty, Life and Man of the House. The pic will feature Jackson and Mac as two former backup soul singers who are part of a famed group. They haven't spoken to each other in 20 years but reluctantly agree to travel together for a tribute performance in honor of their recently deceased band leader.

Both Jackson and Mac will dance and sing in the film with production set to begin Jan. 15.
