The singer and the Mamma Mia! star are set to join Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Sacha Baron Cohen, Anne Hathaway, Eddie Redmayne and Helena Bonham Carter in the much-anticipated film musical, which is scheduled to start shooting this spring (12).

Theatre news website BroadwayWorld.com has confirmed that Swift is in negotiations to play Eponine and Seyfried is slated to play Cosette in the project.

The site previously reported that Glee star Lea Michele, Scarlett Johansson and Evan Rachel Wood were also vying for the coveted role of Eponine.

The movie musical is set to open in theatres in December (12).

Amanda Seyfried Goes Brunette in Burbank

Traveling back to years past for her time in front of the camera, Amanda Seyfried was spotted on a photo shoot in Burbank, California on Friday (December 16).

All smiles as she rested in between snapshots, the "Mamma Mia" star dressed in a dark brown wig, full-length white period dress, and chunky platform heels.

And while she looked flawless for her week-ending shoot, Miss Seyfriend says she's not always so confident in her clothing choices.

Hearkening back to a major fashion blunder of the past, Amanda told press, "I did wear a white bra under a beautiful black Miu Miu dress once in the beginning of my career. It still makes me shudder."
