Louis Tomlinson interested in playing Jamie Vardy in biopic

Louis Tomlinson has revealed his desire to play Jamie Vardy in a film about the footballer.

The Leicester City player has enjoyed a meteoric rise through the ranks in recent years, going from a non-league footballer to a title-winning England international.

It has been suggested that a biopic is in the works about Vardy's life.

Tomlinson attended the Brit's wedding in last week in Cheshire and he told Hello that he would be keen to feature in the film.

He said: "It's a golden opportunity.

"Jamie's story is incredible - he's incredible. He's a lovely guy, very easy-going and such a great example for anyone who thinks they can't follow their dreams.

"For a football fan, any kind of involvement in a story like Jamie's is exciting."

Tomlinson isn't the only member of One Direction interested in acting.

Harry Styles has landed a part in Hollywood film Dunkirk, which will hit cinemas next year.
