R&B superstar Ne-Yo has penned his first screenplay with an album to accompany it.


He told UK's Daily Star he's working on getting the film picked up by a major studio


“I developed a script and I’m in the process of getting a Hollywood studio to turn it into a movie," he said.


Fans of Ne-Yo should not be surprised by this new development. In an interview with MTV from earlier this year he expressed an interest in acting, saying he wanted to be "the black Tom Cruise".


Ne-Yo will be the star of his film, explaining “The underlying question is about your moral fiber. Is love, money and fame more important to you?


The movie is really me and my friends answering that question."


While the movie is still in the developmental stage and probably won't see the big screen this year, his new not yet titled album will hit stores in September.


My new album is a series of songs inspired by the script that I wrote, but it’s not a musical.”
