Justin Timberlake has unveiled the music video for new track Man Of The Woods on the same day the album of the same name was released.

The pop star and actor’s first record in five years has been billed by Timberlake as a collection of southern American music with a modern spin.

His wife, actress Jessica Biel, features on several tracks and makes a cameo in the latest video as the couple dance around a log cabin after Timberlake honours the song’s title by taking a wander through the woods.

Directed by Paul Hunter, the four-minute video also features the musician appear as all four members of a barber shop quartet and sees him enjoy a ride on a zip wire.

Fans reacted to the album and video online with many backing Timberlake’s return to music.
