One Direction star Harry Styles is contemplating to expand his horizon. According to recent report, the singer is set to try his luck in acting.

Daily Mail reported that the 20-year-old singer is considering acting as an alternate career. Styles recently met legendary film producer, Harvey Weinstein, who is evidently quite impressed with him.

"I get from him that he wants to," reveals the producer in a statement given to Sun newspaper. "When you meet him, he's super-charismatic." The star is expected to showcase some great acting skills due to his firsthand experiences infront of the camera while shooting the band's hit singles.

Styles is well known for his huge fan following and is quite a popular figure in Western nations. Mirror reported that Styles was even offered a prominent role in an upcoming flick, which he had to forgo due to prior appointments and packed back to back events.

MTV has confirmed that Styles is on the verge of a new career move. Although the One Direction star is seriously considering an acting career, he is equally committed to music and his band. Meanwhile, the singer is speculated to be the next big thing in Hollywood.

Weinstein's faith in Styles' acting abilities is reflected by his declaration of his complete trust in the English pop singer. "And he doesn't even have to audition for me," declared the producer of 'Shakespeare in Love'.

If the claims by these tabloids are true, then Styles will be joining the league of other singers who became actors including Justin Timberlake and Mariah Carey. His fans, whocall themselves 'Directioners', reportedly started raising concerns about the future of the band if Styles chooses to leave it to pursue acting full time. However, a representative of Styles confirmed to Mirror that any speculation about him leaving the band is completely untrue and baseless.

Brought to fame by the British TV series 'The X Factor', Styles along with his other bandmates Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson have released four successful albums. The band also won many accolades including four MTV music awards and two BRIT awards.
