Malin Akerman joins cast of'Rock of Ages': Actress will have sex scene with Tom Cruise

This movie is going to, well, rock.

"Rock of Ages,"based on the mega-hit Broadway musical, has finalized its lineup -- and it's packed with big names.

According toDeadline, comedic actressMalin Akermanhas signed on to play Constance, an enterprising journalist bent on exposingStacee Jaxx's rock star lifestyle.

One perk of the role? A sex scene withTom Cruise, who will play Jaxx.

In the musical, the two share a steamy romp in a bar bathroom and then duet on Foreigner's"I Want To Know What Love Is."

In addition to Cruise, the big-screen adaptation already boasts a slew of Hollywood heavy-hitters like"Breaking Bad's"Bryan Cranston, who will portray the city's prudish mayor andCatherine Zeta-Jonesas the mayor's wife.

Alec Baldwin,Mary J. Blige,Russell Brand,Paul Giamatti, and"Dancing with the Stars"proJulianne Houghround out the cast.

Finding the right Constance proved easier said than done.Director Adam Shankman, who scored a box office hit with 2007's"Hairspray,"first approachedAnne Hathawayfor the part, but lost her to the Catwoman role in"The Dark Knight Rises."AndAmy Adamswas a no-go after she signed on to playLois Lanein the newSupermanflick,"Man of Steel."

"Rock of Ages"is scheduled to hit theaters summer 2012.
