Los Angeles - Geri Halliwell is "desperate" to get George Clooney and Brad Pitt to star in her new film.
The former Spice Girl has revealed her plans to cast the Hollywood heartthrobs in the upcoming animated adaptation of her children's books Ugenia Lavender.
"I have not met Brad Pitt so realistically he's unlikely to take part but I am desperate to get the gorgeous George on board," she said.
"I've got an actor character called Bradley Litt and a Dr Clooney who delivers Ugenia's baby sister in a store called Garrods. Hmm, I wonder who and what these could be based on?!"
The ambitious 36-year-old star - who plans to voice the lead character Ugenia herself and is also penning an original Hollywood screenplay - also said she is keen to get British soccer star Wayne Rooney involved in her new project.
"Crazy Trevor, Ugenia's friend in the series, reminds me a lot of Wayne Rooney in both looks and personality," she added.
"I am really hopeful he will agree to voice the part. I get the impression he'd be up for doing it just for fun."
"George Clooney, Brad Pitt and Wayne Rooney - how's that for an A-list line-up?!" she exclaimed. - Bang Showbiz.com
