Bob Dylan is in talks to take on his first major film role in 15 years, a producer on the project said.
The musician could star in an Intermedia Films project tentatively titled "Masked and Anonymous," said Nigel Sinclair, one of the film's producers.
"He is very interested in the project," Sinclair said. "We're working out some of the details with him."
The film, which has been in development for about a year, would feature Dylan in the role of Jack Fate, a troubadour who is brought out of prison by his former manager for one last concert.

It is uncertain whether Dylan would write new music for the feature. Shooting is scheduled to begin in June.
