The pop singer turned emerging Hollywood actor is busily boosting his acting resume and will lend his voice in an upcoming episode of "Family Guy" spin-off "The Cleveland Show." He will play Paul, the boyfriend of Terry, as well as a "singing booger."

"Terry [voiced by "Saturday Night Live" and "30 Rock" actor Jason Sudeikis] falls in love with a guy voiced by Justin," "Cleveland" creator Rich Appel told Us Weekly. Appel added that the 29-year-old star turns in a funny performance: "Justin is just hysterical!"

According to MTV News, Timberlake's voice-over work is just the latest in a range of roles for the singer-turned-actor. He has reportedly been offered a role opposite Amanda Seyfried in the sci-flick "I'm.mortal," in which people don't get older than age 25.

The "Family Guy" episode is scheduled to air in February 2011.
