According to the Los Angeles Times, the last option is the most likely. Bieber has reportedly been considering a role in What Would Kenny Do?, a film "about the relationship between a 17-year-old and his thirtysomething self." Ashton Kutcher is rumored to be playing the part of the thirtysomething-aged main character.
The film, being developed by Sony and produced by Will Smith's Overbrook Entertainment, comes from a 2008 Black List script by Chris Baldi. In the original script, "a teenager meets a hologram claiming to be the adult version of himself; the hologram then helps guide the teen through high school." Sony is allegedly looking for a new writer and director. If this deal goes through, this would be Bieber's first foray into non-documentary film.
What do you think about Justin Bieber transitioning into a leading man and more importantly, do you think Ashton Kutcher has the emotional depth to convincingly portray a hologram?
