Singer-actress Mary J. Blige is in talks to star in the upcoming musical Rock of Ages, according to Vulture.

Mary J. Blige will play Justice Charlier, the owner of an exotic dance club named Venus Club on the Sunset Strip. A deal hasn't been made as of yet, although it was said she, "is all in" to play the role.

We reported at the end of October that Tom Cruise and Taylor Swift were in talks to star in the movie and, while Taylor Swift wasn't mentioned in this new report, Tom Cruise is still in talks to star in the musical. However, he was originally in talks to play Dennis Dupree, owner of the Bourbon Room, but now it is said that he is eyeing the role of a "villainous rock singer, Stacee Jaxx."

Chris D'Arienzo is writing the screenplay based off his own play, with Adam Shankman directing and choreographing the musical. No production schedule was released.

Rock of Ages comes to theaters in 2011.
