Rachel Stevens lands Hollywood role


S Club's Rachel Stevens has signed a six-figure deal to star in a Hollywood movie.

It tells the story of a young Jewish girl, played by Summer Phoenix, who breaks free from her traditional family and lands a job on a TV station.

Rachel plays a demanding diva from a fictional pop group called M5.

The singer was in the middle of filming S Club's fourth TV series, Viva S Club, in Barcelona when she received a call from director Ric Cantor.

She told The Sun: "Doing my scenes was great fun and I loved being on a movie set. I might play a diva but she is honestly nothing like me in real life.

"
Summer was lovely and very friendly. I still love singing but I definitely want to do more acting in the future."

Suzie Gold is being made by Pathé Films on location in London and the Isle Of Man.
