The rockers will star as Rooney Mara's band in the film. The "Lion" actress actually went on stage with a guitar to perform with the group when they were shooting the movie at Austin City Limits in 2012, reported Contactmusic.
"That was not a normal Black Lips show with Rooney up there jamming with us. But we like to cause a shocking scene sometimes," frontman Cole Alexander says.
The romance drama also stars Ryan Gosling opposite Mara and Michael Fassbender alongside Natalie Portman.
Malick says he wanted a very authentic atmosphere for his movie, which follows the complicated love quadrangle between two budding songwriters on their journey towards success.
"And to have that in front of a real audience, it brings a different kind of energy I think than these concert scenes you see where everything's like extras and cast and stuff; it feels much more vibrant and alive," she adds.
