Ed Sheeran May Appear In Slumdog Millionaire Director's New Movie

No word yet on whether he will contribute to the movie's score though the singer has previously expressed interest in doing more of this.

The cast for the movie thus far includes Lily James and Himesh Patel. The script for the untitled feature hails from Love Actually and About Time screenwriter Richard Curtis, and while the plot has been kept under wraps, The Daily Mail has some intriguing story details, assuming they're true: It's the story of a man who wakes up one day to discover he's the only person in the world who remembers the songs of The Beatles.

Powerful winds also damaged several buildings at the University of Central Arkansas, though no injuries were reported there. A Wisconsin woman was killed when she lost control of her minivan on slick roads and veered into an oncoming SUV.

Sheeran already had cameos in The Bastard Executioner, Game of Thrones, and Bridget Jones' Baby, so this would be a continuation of his push into film and TV. Working Title's Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner will produce alongside Matthew James Wilkinson (Double Date) and Bernie Bellew (T2 Trainspotting). Curtis and Boyle will also produce the project. Executive vice president of production Erik Baiers is overseeing the project for Universal.

As we reported back in March, Boyle will be helming the next James Bond movie, now titled Bond 25. The news comes from the pages of the Daily Mail in the United Kingdom, who say that Sheeran is set to play the new comedy - tentatively titled All You Need Is Love.
