While he is currently tending to his duties in the big leagues at the MLB All-Star game in Anaheim, Calif., Alex Rodriguez is also gearing up for his big-screen debut. The New York Yankees slugger will team up with actors Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis in the film Friends With Benefits, Variety reports.
Woody Harrelson, Patricia Clarkson, Richard Jenkins, Jenna Elfman, Emma Stone and Andy Samberg are also joining the film, according to Variety, about two friends coming out of "disastrous relationships."
The production company for the film, Screen Gems, will work around A-Rod's busy Yankees schedule by shooting his scenes on the player's off days.
