Cara Delevingne has made no secret of her desire to leave the catwalk behind and become an actress.

And the British supermodel has landed her biggest role yet with a part in the movie adaptation of Paper Towns, a book by Fault In Our Stars author John Green.

The Hollywood Reporter relays that Nat Wolff, who appeared in the movie version of Fault, will play the male lead - a teenager named Quentin who has a crush on his female neighbour (Cara).

He drifts apart from her, but is drawn back into her life when she approaches him to engage in a revenge mission.

And then things take a dark turn as she disappears.

The movie is slated for release next July.
