Britney Spears has reportedly been approached by Quentin Tarentino to star as stripper Varla in a remake of the 1965 cult Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!

The filmmaker, who is responsible for gruesome flicks including Kill Bill and Pulp Fiction, thinks the recovering pop wreck will be perfect for the role.

The movie will see Spears’ character murder a man she encounters in the desert with her bare hands. She will also be required to participate in same sex love scenes.

A source tells the Telegraph: "Quentin is convinced Britney will be brilliant. She's delighted. She thinks it could turn her career around.

"It is perfect Tarantino material. He wanted to get Britney first. She's playing the most important character."

It makes a change from her movie debut Crossroads!
