Per Variety, Cher will return to the silver screen in “Burlesque,” ending a decade-long absence from cinema. She will lend her pipes to this contemporary musical alongside Christina Aguilera, who will be making her feature film debut.

Aguilera plays a small-town girl from Iowa with a big voice–not too much of a stretch for the “Genie in a Bottle” singer. Her character goes to a neo-burlesque club on Sunset Boulevard run by Tess, played by Cher.

Tweeters are excited for Cher’s big screen return:
