Justin Timberlake & Cameron Diaz Reunite

Not in a romantic way (did that title get you going though?) but in the film Bad Teacher where Justin Timberlake has just been cast to star along side his former girlfriend. The two dated for almost 4 years before splitting in 2007.
Justin will play a substitute teacher who is seduced by Cameron’s character who is bitter after being dumped by her sugar daddy. Hello awkwardness.
The movie also stars Molly Shannon, Eric Stonestree, John Michael Higgins and Jason Segel (dear Gawd please let there be frontal of Jason Segel in this film).
The co-president of Columbia Pictures Doug Belgrad told Access Hollywood:
“With Justin, Molly and Eric, joining Cameron, Jason, Lucy and the rest of this dream comedycast, we couldn’t be more excited about this movie. We love what we’ve seen of Justin’s performance in David Fincher’s ‘The Social Network’ and he is a perfect match for this role.”
I bet Columbia is excited. That’s big box office draw wanting to see the two of these ex lovers act together, isn’t it?
Clearly Cameron and Justin must be okay with this or they wouldn’t do it together. However it’s a starring role for Justin so maybe he would have done it regardless for his acting resume. Who knows? I’m pretty sure they are over each other by now but there will still be awkwardness I would think. They begin shooting in April. If I can get my paws on pictures of the shoot you can bet your panties I will be posting them.
Could you work alongside an ex?
