Eric Dane Joins "Burlesque"

"Grey's Anatomy" star Eric Dane has joined "Burlesque," a musical drama starring Christina Aguilera and Cher.

The Screen Gems film centers on the journey of an ambitious small-town girl (Aguilera) with a big voice who finds love and success in a Los Angeles neo-burlesque club, reminiscent of the nightclub in Bob Fosse's "Cabaret."

Dane is playing the role of a charming, highly successful businessman who vies for Aguilera's heart.

He rounds out a cast that also includes Stanley Tucci, Cam Gigandet, Kristen Bell and Alan Cumming.

Steve Antin is directing the feature, which will be released Thanksgiving 2010.

Dane last appeared on the big screen in "Marley & Me" and will be seen in New Line's "Valentine's Day."
