Billie Piper could be taking her Secret Diary of a Call Girl to Hollywood, as the hit TV show is being developed into a movie.
As Piper works on the final series of the raunchy show, in which she plays high-class call girl Belle, she has revealed that a film is now in the works, after the show became a huge hit in the States.
Speaking to The Sun this week, Piper revealed: 'I'm about to start filming the fourth series and then that will be it.
'I'm not sure it has legs past four seasons so we're trying to develop a movie.'
The will be Billie's silver screen debut, and movie execs are reportedly hoping that the franchise might see a similar success to Sex and the City.
A source told the paper: 'The book has been a worldwide success and the TV show has been a hit on both sides of the Atlantic, a movie is the next obvious step.
