Ed Sheeran wants to make a movie, star in it and work on its soundtrack.
The singer says he wants to temporarily move away from the music scene and shift his attention on a Richard Curtis-style film. Richard Curtis is the director of Notting Hill, Love Actually and Four Weddings and a Funeral.
”I really want to make a film that I do the soundtrack for and star in – that’s my next thing,” he said.
”I look at a film like Notting Hill and I think that’s like a brilliant benchmark, or Once. So if you were to mix Notting Hill with Once, I would say that would be a good start.
”I don’t think I will do an album as a soundtrack, but I will definitely put together a soundtrack with a bunch of my songs on it, but I don’t think it will be an album.”
He told The Sun: ”I am in talks with one filmmaker that I really f****** love and we are going to slowly but surely put something together.
