As BroadwayWorld has previously reported, Christina Aguilera will make her big screen debut with Screen Gems' movie musical, 'Burlesque,' due out on November 24, 2010. She headlines the film alongside Cher and Stanley Tucci, who are additionally joined by Alan Cumming, Eric Dane, Dianna Agron, and Kristen Bell. Today, the clip of Aguilera singing Etta James' "Something's Got A Hold On Me' has been released!

The film is directed by Steve Antin, the brother of Pussycat Dolls founder Robin Antin. Antin wrote the script, which was revised by 'Erin Brockovich' scribe, Susannah Grant, with Aguilera in mind.

The movie is a contemporary musical about "an ambitious smalltown girl with a big voice who finds love, family and success in a Los Angeles neo-burlesque club."

Donald De Line is producing through his De Line Pictures banner.
