When Hollywood comes knocking you answer the door, and it looks like Liam Payne could be following in Harry Styles’ footsteps as he’s been approached over a role in Steven Spielberg’s remake of West Side Story.

(...)

Liam is said to be looking at a role within the Jets gang, who oppose the Sharks in the movie. Although it’s not meant to be a lead role, we bet the Familiar singer will thrive in the part thanks to his dancing and vocal prowess. Yep, prowess.

A source told The Sun: “Liam was approached and was naturally flattered to be considered."

“Casting agents have been ordered to find singers between the ages of 15 and 25 who can also dance, while also being able to deliver lines,” the mystery source said. “Liam sees the opportunity to work with Spielberg as an exciting prospect and one too good to turn down.”

Funny enough, Liam recently mentioned Steven Spielberg on his most recent Ask Anything Chat for Most Requested Live. He was talking about who would he like to be next if he had a Hollywood star. Check this video at 4:06 👀 

What began as a simple conversation, ended in love.
