how to add lookup/choice field with data from Active Directory to Sharepoint custom content type

Question

Hi,

I am trying to create a custom content type in Sharepoint where one of the multiple choice fields needs to get data from Active Directory. I've been looking on Google but haven't found any good solutions. Probably I'd have to create a custom field type?

Thanks!
