SCENE — INTERIOR: the office of DreamWorks Animation. The Boss of DreamWorks greets famous pop singer, movie star, and MySpace owner Justin Timberlake at the door, and seems to be in a good mood.

BOSS: Oh, Justin, you’re here! Please, sit down! Thanks for signing on to be in this new Trolls movie…

JT: Hey, I grew up with Troll dolls, I’m honored to be part of it!

BOSS: Yeah, we’re really excited to have you — and it’s a musical comedy, so to have someone with your expertise to be our Executive Producer of Music is really going to give the film a fresh, exciting edge.

JT: Yeah, I’ve got some great ideas for where we cou —

BOSS: We need you to write the next Happy.

JT: For — for the Trolls film?

BOSS: Just make it feel-good, fun, kids have gotta love it, adults have gotta love it. We need you to do the same thing for Trolls that Happy did for Despicable Me 2.

JT: This isn’t a discussion, is it?

BOSS: And put an exclamation mark on the end of the title. Makes it look more exciting. Looking forward to hearing the track, Justin.

The video clip is also the definition of star-studded and also contains ICONA POP WHICH MEANS ICONA POP ARE ACTUALLY IN THE FILM WHICH MEANS THEY’LL PROBABLY GET A NEW SONG OUT OF IT TOO.
