The Dude will take centre stage as Jeff Bridges has signed on for Crazy Heart, a music drama for CMT Films, reports 'Variety'.

Bridges, joined on-screen by Maggie Gyllenhaal fresh from her role in The Dark Knight, and Robert Duvall who is also producing, stars as a downtrodden, alcoholic country singer, who looks to rebuild his life and career thanks to his burgeoning relationship with a reporter (Gyllenhaal).

Revered music composer and producer T. Bone Burnett (whose efforts include O Brother, Where Art Thou? and The Big Lebowski) will provide original music for the film and soundtrack. Bridges, who is nearly unrecognizable on the big screen in current blockbuster Iron Man, will perform original songs in the film.
