It should be no surprise that Phoenix are again involved in the next film project from Lost In Translation director Sofia Coppola. After all, they've been involved in most of Coppola's films, and the band's front-man Thomas Mars is both her life partner and the father of her child. In any case, get ready for even more Phoenix contributions.

While the details are scarce, The Playlist have revealed that Mars will be contributing some original music to Coppola's fourth directorial project, Somewhere.

The film stars Stephen Dorff as a badass actor who's hard living hits a road bump when his long lost 11-year-old daughter shows up to hang out. In other words, it's the hip indie-crowd version of this.

Little else is known about the soundtrack, but the film is expected in theatres sometime next year.
