Kooks singer to appear in horror film?

The Kooks' Luke Pritchard has revealed that he is in talks to appear in a B-movie.

Pritchard said he is hoping to take a brief break from the music industry to pursue thespian projects.

"I have been doing a lot of music for films recently, which has been a nice change, but now I'm keen to explore the acting side of things," he told The Sun.

"I'm currently talking to a female American director about a possible movie. It's a scary horror B-type film."

The frontman said the film would be "cheesy" with "a bit of Paris Texas thrown in".

"It sounds great. I think it will be fun to try out something a bit different," he said.
