Will.i.am is singing out in movie theaters for Oprah Winfrey’s new cable venture.

Starting Friday, a song written by the Black Eyed Peas member will be heard as part of nationwide theater advertising for the OWN channel.

Winfrey’s cable network will launch on Jan. 1. Its full name is OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network. A joint venture of Winfrey’s Harpo Inc. and Discovery Communications Inc., it will replace the Discovery Health channel.

Will.i.am will be featured on the OWN channel next summer in a series about the creative process.
