Academy Awards performers Hugh Jackman and Anne Hathaway are in talks to reteam for another song and dance number - in a forthcoming movie musicalabout circus showman P.T. BARNUM.

Oscar host Jackman brought Broadway glamour to the awards show in February (09), opening the ceremony with an upbeat song-and-dance routine featuring the Get Smart star.

Jackman has since signed on with Twentieth Century Fox to play the three-ring circus pioneer in The Greatest Showman on Earth.

According to Daily Variety, Hathaway is in talks to play his love interest Jenny Lind - the famed circus singer Barnum dubbed the Swedish Nightingale.

British singer-songwriter Mika is reportedly in negotiations to write music and lyrics for the project.

Jackman will also produce the film with his Seed Productions partner, John Palermo.
