Zayn Malik has decided that producing his own TV show isn't quite enough, as it's rumoured he's actually considering starring in it too.

Having teamed up with Law & Order's Dick Wolf for 'Boys', which will follow a fictional boy band who find themselves thrust into the limelight, Zayn is hoping to reignite his passion for acting.

"Zayn has started talks with his fellow producers about him appearing in a couple of episodes of Boys," a source told The Sun.

"He's really keen to kick of his acting career and sees this as the perfect opportunity to do so, especially as he will have a lot of creative control.

"The discussions are still ongoing and there is still a chance he may just play himself in the show. Either way he is taking his role as executive producer very seriously and sees this as a big stepping stone to working more on TV and film in the future," they added.

Well it's not like Zayn hasn't got any experience of what it's like to be in boyband, is it?!
