Ferdinand, who recently said he had wanted to be an actor if football had not worked out for him, is no stranger to the showbusiness world after a previous foray into TV with his show "World Cup Wind-Ups" before the 2006 tournament in Germany.
He also recently took over for a day at BBC Radio 1Xtra where he co-hosted a show and played some of his favourite records.
The 30-year-old, who has set up his own record label, counts 50 Cent among his celebrity friends. Three years ago the American star was even joined by Ferdinand and his team-mate Wayne Rooney on stage at the MEN Arena in Manchester.
Cole, meanwhile, is married to Girls Aloud star and X-Factor judge Cheryl.
