EPAThe 'SexyBack' singer met the British film director at his London pub The Punchbowl on Monday (29.06.09) and the pair discussed working together.A source said: "Work is really taking off for Guy at the moment and he is lining up talent for projects in the pipeline."Guy and Justin have known each other for a while through Guy's ex-wife Madonna."Guy thinks Justin - who has previously appeared in 2006 film 'Alpha Dog' - would be perfect for his big-screen version of musical 'Guys And Dolls' or a remake of the classic war film 'Wild Geese'.The source added to Britain's The Sun newspaper: "Justin would be ideal for 'Guys And Dolls' because he can act, dance and sing. He would be a great box office draw into the bargain, as well as a safe bet to sell the soundtrack."As well as discussing future projects, Justin and Guy - who became friends when Justin worked with Madonna on hit single '4 Minutes' - drank pints of lager, before performing a few songs as they strummed on a banjo and a guitar.An onlooker said: "Justin got there about 11.30pm. Guy had been there since 8pm and the night quickly got very merry. At one point they were in such high spirits, Guy picked up a banjo and handed Justin a guitar and they had a little singsong."
