The British band have asked the American hip-hop mogul to take the helm on their upcoming fourth LP and help them come up with a fresh sound. Timbaland is thrilled the group, fronted by Chris Martin, have chosen him to be their producer and insists he cannot wait to get "into their heads."
He said: "I will try to get into their heads, to see what they thinking about. I will just try to figure out how they are feeling."
"And if they are feeling a certain way, I will go by that. It's more about everyday life then it is about music."
Timbaland has worked with some of the biggest names in pop, including Missy Elliott, Whitney Houston, Jennifer Lopez, and Diddy.
He masterminded Justin Timberlake's worldwide hit album "FutureSex/LoveSounds" and also produced Nelly Furtado's singles "Promiscuous" and "Maneater."
Chris co-wrote Nelly's song "All Good Things (Come to an End)" with the Canadian singer, Timbaland and Nate "Danja" Hills.
He originally recorded backing vocals on the track but his record label EMI allegedly stopped the version from being released.

That will probably be a really fun album - totally different from the Coldplay we all know.
