Singer turned movie star Justin Timberlake joins co-stars Amanda Seyfried and Cillian Murphy at the UK premiere of the new sci-fi action film, "In Time".
The story is set in a parallel future, where time is literally money, and the aging process stops at 25-years-old when the built-in body clock starts counting down.
The only way to stay alive is to earn, steal, or inherit more time.
Timberlake called the film's concept fascinating.
SOUNDBITE: Justin Timberlake, singer, saying (English):
"I think it's an intriguing concept for a movie [laughs]. I don't know if it would work in real life. But I think the best sci-fi films have a way of taking other-worldly concepts and using it too, kind of throws some metaphors at us, which this film does."
On the red carpet Seyfried listed the pluses of working with Timberlake.

"You know, he keeps your spirit up. Makes you laugh, even though you're freezing, and it's three a.m. and you're on the beach and you just want to go home and cry. He keeps your spirits up."
"In Time" is currently planning in U.S. theaters, and will be released in the U.K. on November 1.
