The film, which is due in U.S. cinemas Nov. 13, is described on its official website as such: "Never before has a date in history been so significant to so many cultures, so many religions, scientists, and governments. '2012' is an epic adventure about a global cataclysm that brings an end to the world and tells of the heroic struggle of the survivors." Although Lambert's participation in the film's soundtrack has yet to be formally announced, Queen guitarist Brian May — who performed with Lambert during the "Idol" finale — let the news slip in a recent interview.

On his blog, located at brianmay.com, May stated, "I was privileged to hear a track that the guys have finished for Adam Lambert . . . a song for a forthcoming film, '2012.' I have to say I was completely blown away . . . it's truly sensational. In fact it's so obviously a number one smash, any bookie would be mad to take bets on it. I am not kidding. I'm not easily moved to jelly by male vocalists . . . but Adam's voice reaches out with sensitivity, depth, maturity, and awesome range and power which will make jaws drop all around the world. Its an awesome performance. No doubt about it. The world of Rock has a bright new star."

In addition to Wicked, Lambert was also been seen onstage in The Ten Commandments.
