Love Island’s Zara Holland set for Hollywood movie career… and no, not porn!
The star has set her sights on making it in the States since leaving the ITV2 show
LOVE Island’s Zara Holland has revealed she’s set her sights on making it as a Hollywood movie star now she's left the ITV2 show.
Talking exclusively to The Sun Online, the 20-year-old tells us that her dream is to crack America after landing her first big role back in 2006 alongside David Walliams and Matt Lucas.
Talking of her impressive acting credentials, Zara tells us: “My first role was with Matt Lucas and David Walliams when I was ten - I did the Little Britain live tour which was great! I’ve done a bit in Emmerdale, Hollyoaks and a few commercials too. It’d be great to get back into that.
“The dream role? I’d love to be in a soap full time or a drama and then a Hollywood film! Anything like that! I trained in musical theatre to start with so we’ll see.”
This news will come as a surprise to fellow Islander Alex Bowen who previously joked that she could make a name for herself in the adult entertainment world.
After Alex and Zara’s night of passion on the ITV2 show resulted in her losing her Miss Great Britain title, he said: "You know what, at the end of the day, maybe you'll get a porn deal after this and you won't have to worry about Miss GB anymore.”
The pageant queen quickly fired back: "F*** off. It's not funny."
