As well as being an accomplished musician, Fall Out Boy singer Patrick Stump is also trying his hand at television acting. Stump's debut on the small screen will be in the January 2 2008 season premiere of long-running US cop show Law & Order.
In an episode entitled Darkness, Stump will appear as an office worker named Marty Dressler who becomes the prime suspect in a murder investigation when the wife and daughter of a top executive are kidnapped and a housekeeper is found dead.
FOB fans needn't worry about Stump quitting the band to become an actor though. The band, who are hard at work writing and recording the follow-up to this year's Infinity On High, is still Stump's main priority.
"We go off and do our fun little things, but Fall Out Boy is always our main focus," he told MTV News.
