drop-down list from a database asp .net mvc4
===

I'm using asp .net mvc 4. I have a database that contains a table of **users(user_id, password, email)** , another one for **roles(role_id,role_description)** , and a table i called **user_role(user_id,role_id)** that contains the list of users with their roles and i'm using entity framework for the model. I have a controller for user account settings with 3 views, one for creating one for editing and one for deleting a user. The problem is that all of those views are strongly-typed to the **user model** and i want to update the table role and the table user_role at the same time. How can i do? if you want i can show you more details.
i'm wondering if there is a way to show a drop-down list for the roles s that users can choose one role from the existing roles in the database.
Thank you.
