Producer-singer Park Jin-young is mulling his appearance in a movie for which he has been offered the main leading role.

Harimao Pictures, producer of the film titled "The 5 Million Dollar Man" (translated title), revealed the news on Monday although saying they are "still in discussions" and "cannot reveal Park's stance on the offer officially."

The movie, about the commotion caused by an aspiring singer getting involved in a money-related incident, will be directed by Kim Ik-ro and crank in around October.

The movie will not be Park's first time acting however -- he appeared in KBS' musical drama "Dream High" early this year which told of the dreams of students who attend a performing arts school aimed at cultivating celebrities.

Park, 39, made his debut in 1994 with his first studio album "Blue City" and has since released six more full-length records and mini-album "Sad Freedom" (2009).

He established his own record label JYPE in 1997 where he discovered and trained many new talents, most notably Asian superstar Rain. He is also responsible for nurturing the most successful K-pop groups such as G.O.D., 2PM, 2AM and the Wonder Girls.
