Julianne Hough has reportedly signed up to star in forthcoming movie Burlesque.

The former Dancing With The Stars personality was in rehearsals over the weekend for her role of a fellow dancer in the project, E! reports.

The 21-year-old will join stars Cher and Christina Aguilera in the tale of a small town girl (Aguilera) who seeks employment in a struggling venue run by Tess (Cher).

Director Steve Antin will begin filming on Burlesque next month for release in November 2010.
