Bruno Mars is reportedly teaming up with Disney to star in a new music-themed film.
According to Deadline, Mars and Disney are said to be developing a “music-themed theatrical narrative feature” which Mars will both star in and produce.
Deadline also report that Mars will create “mostly original music” for the project, which he will also perform.
Mars then seemingly confirmed the news himself on February 6 via social media.
Sharing a clip of himself playing Disney’s famous theme, Mars captioned the clip: “‘If your heart is in your dream No request is too extreme When you wish upon a Star’ #MarsMeetsTheMouse #ImGoingToDisneyland #YESSS!!”

Last year, Chic legend Nile Rodgers revealed that Mars had to remind him how to make their forthcoming collaboration sound like a hit song.
The pair have been working together on a song at Abbey Road Studios together with Anderson .Paak for Rodgersâ new album. Rodgers admitted he tried to make the song âreally cleverâ when they began working on the track.
Speaking to Two Shot Podcast, Rodgers said: âI was doing what I thought were really clever jazz chords. They were amazing and I was so thrilled. But Bruno said âHey Nile, you know that first chord youâre starting with? Youâve got to change that if you want it to be a hit.’â
The producer added: âGod knows he was right, because Iâve done that so many times to other people. I went home, changed the chord and changed the name of the song to âListen To Brunoâ.â
The song is expected to be included on Rodgersâ follow-up to last yearâs Chic album âItâs About Timeâ. Rodgers told The Daily Star last year the new album is also likely to feature Robert Plant and Jorja Smith.
