Little Mix's Leigh-Anne Pinnock is set to make her film debut when she stars in a Christmas film later this year.
The 30-year-old singer will take the leading role in Boxing Day, where she plays an international pop star, not unlike her real life.
But her charmed life is upturned when her ex-boyfriend returns home for Christmas with his American fiancee.
Leigh-Anne posted the news about the film, which features an all-black main cast, on Little Mix's Twitter account.
She said: “Guys I’m going to be in a movie.
“I can’t tell you how proud and overwhelmed I feel right now!
“An all black cast Christmas RomCom… Boxing Day is Out December 3rd in cinemas!
“Please support and spread the word! I’m so flipping excited for this x Leigh.”
The tweet included also included the trailer of the film.
When will Leigh-Anne Pinnock's Christmas film Boxing Day be released?
According to the official Little Mix Twitter account, Boxing Day will be released on December 3, 2021.
The preview for the film starts in London and shows Melvin, played by Ameen, on a talk show discussing how he “fell in love with a beautiful American woman”, his new fiancee Lisa, portrayed by King.
Pinnock then makes her entrance as pop star Georgia, who is spotted on the side of London buses and performing on stage.
American Lisa runs into her on the street, admitting “I love your music”, but a dramatic moment ensues when Lisa later finds out her soon-to-be-husband previously dated the star.
