Harvey Weinstein has revealed that he has met up with Harry Styles on a number of occasions.

The film producer added to The Sun that he thinks the One Direction singer can definitely become an actor if he wants to.

Famed movie man Weinstein confirmed that he has already offered a film role to Styles - but the Brit's schedule got in the way.

He said: "There's no question he will enter the movie business. I get from him that he wants to. When you meet him, he's super-charismatic.

"He came to our Oscars party last year and then I went out to lunch with him. I've met him two or three times and he was very interested and charming. I think the guy is a movie star.

"You know he's a dashing rogue - a fun-loving, spirited kind of actor that used to be in England all the time. Like David Niven or Douglas Fairbanks, he's got that vibe, he really does.

"And he doesn't even have to audition for me. We offered him a part and he couldn't do the movie because he had the tour. The amount of money their tour did is crazy, so he's got obligations."
