Peter Andre isn’t just about abs and singing Mysterious Girl – he’s now also taken a step into the realm of acting and has even landed a part in a Hollywood movie! So it’s no wonder that when we catch up with the star, 44, he’s feeling on top of the world. Married to doctor Emily MacDonagh, 27, and a dad-of -four, Pete tells Woman’s Own all…

Hi, Pete! We’ve heard you’re heading to Hollywood – this is amazing news! 

I know, I’m so happy. That is the final dream, isn’t it? I’ve done everything I wanted to do except for movies.

What can you tell us about the film? 

This is a psychological thriller slash horror film. It’s called The Undoing but that is a working title. I read the script and went, ‘Oh my God, it’s a big part!’ I thought I was just going to be an extra! We won’t start filming until next year, though.

Has acting always been the dream? 

It’s always been a dream for later on in life. Once I get my foot in the door, I’m not stopping. I’m going to go for it. I’ve just shoved it into top priority.

Have you done any acting before? 

That’s what I did when I was at school. I failed in music, which explains some of the songs I’ve released! The music was what took off but it was drama that I did well in. So many great actors from Australia have come from Neighbours and Home & Away and I kind of regretted that I never tried to do any of those shows because actually that opened them all up to Hollywood.

If it takes off, would you ever consider moving out to LA?
