It seems as if former thrash metal heavyweights Megadeth aren't just busy with recording their upcoming 12th studio album, as we announced not too long ago. According to main man Dave Mustaine, they - or at least, he - will be busy working alongside comedian Will Ferrell, if you can believe that.

Speaking with TheLiveLine.com, Mustaine informed the website that he's going to be working on music for Ferrell's latest flick, Land of the Lost, due out in theatres on June 5.

"I'm going to be working on the new Will Ferrell movie, Land of the Lost... going to be putting some music on that," Mustaine said. "I went and saw the movie last week and it was hilarious. I loved it. I love Will Ferrell; I think he's hilarious anyways. But, yeah, we're getting ready to send some music up to these guys right now... then I'll be heading up there this week to hopefully finish all this off with their guys. And, man, how exciting for me."

As we previously reported, Megadeth are currently working on their forthcoming, yet-untitled, album. They started on it back in January at their Vic's Garage Studio in San Marcos, CA, with producer Andy Sneap. Roadrunner Records will handle its release, which is slated for September of this year.
