Peter Andre has landed himself a role in a brand-new movie.
The 48-year-old singer revealed he had got the part by sharing a sneak peak at his script on Instagram with his 1.7 million followers.
In the short clip shared on the social media platform, the father of four can be seen working with director Fredi Inwaka on the new film which is currently titled Ja-Faican and features a “suspicious character” named Billy Buckle.
The TV star also shared that the crew will start filming in September for the blockbuster after shooting was postponed due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

Another added: “Congratulations Pete.”
A third person posted: “This is brilliant news.”
While a fourth social media user said: “Can’t wait to see it Peter.”
In another video shared online, Peter admitted: “I was supposed to be out there, in Los Angeles this year. They were parts in feature films that I was sent scripts of.

“I was incredibly excited to get to work in feature films.
“I’ll definitely go out there when we can – and I might just take Junior with me.
“That’s what Junior wants to do. He’s not as interested in doing music, but he loves acting.
“They don’t know me so well out there, which is brilliant when you want to start on a new path.”

Junior, 15, who he shares with his ex-wife Katie Price, made his acting debut alongside his dad in comedy On The Other Foot which shares the story of a racist man finding himself in the body of a black man.
The film is still in production and is set to hit the cinemas later on this year.
This isn’t the first time the singer has stepped into an acting role.
Peter transformed into a heavily tattooed heroin addict for a gritty drama in his latest film The Inheritance in 2019.
