*The cast of "Soul Men" expands with the addition of several new actors – including Isaac Hayes, "Will & Grace" vet Sean Hayes, singer John Legend and "American Pie's" so-called "MILF" Jennifer Coolidge.

       The film stars Samuel L. Jackson and Bernie Mac respectively as Louis and Floyd, two estranged soul singers who reluctantly take a road trip to a reunion show at the Apollo Theater in honor of their newly-deceased third member, who will be played by John Legend.

      Isaac Hayes, who voiced the character Chef in Comedy Central's "South Park," will play himself in "Soul Men," while Coolidge has been cast as the love interest of Mac's character. Sean Hayes plays the band's obnoxious manager.

        Jackie Long has also joined the film, along with Affion Crockett, Adam Herschman and Fatso Fasano. As previously reported, Sharon Leal signed on to play Louis' daughter Cleo, who joins him and Floyd on their road trip and eventually becomes a singer for the band.

       The film will be directed by Malcolm Lee ("Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins") and is scheduled for release on Oct. 10 via MGM/Dimension.
