Justin Timberlake To Produce Reality TV Show

May 10th, 2008

Justin Timberlake is adding the title "producer" to his ever-growing list of talents, with news that the singer/actor is set to create a reality series for MTV described as a "real life Bourne Identity”.

Each episode of the new show, called ‘The Phone’, will begin with two hidden cell phones ringing on opposite ends of a major city. Once the phone is picked up, a "mysterious guide gives contestants five seconds to concede whether or not they wish to play the game for a chance of winning a huge cash prize," MTV said in a statement.

Afterwards, the players work against each other on various missions, all the while keeping in touch with the guide via cell phone, and being followed by a helicopter hovering above.

The show, which is based off a Dutch series of the same name, is set to premiere this fall.
