Supermodel Cara Delevingne is in talks for the minor role of a mermaid in a new big screen adaptation of 'Peter Pan'
The Victoria's Secret model, 21, who made her movie debut as Princess Sorokina in 2012's 'Anna Karenina', will be joining the previously announced cast including Hugh Jackman, Garrett Hedlund, Rooney Mara, Adeel Akhtar, Levi Miller, and Amanda Seyfried, reported Deadline.
"It will be quite a demanding role as there will be a lot of underwater work and stunts. Filming underwater could scare a lot of actresses but Cara is definitely up for the challenge," a source said.
Scripted by Jason Fuchs, the film will offer a new take on the origin of the classic characters created by J M Barrie. It is set by Warner Bros for a worldwide release on July 17, 2015.
The UK runway beauty will be next seen in psychological thriller 'The Face of an Angel' which is inspired by the real-life story of Amanda Knox. She is also in negotiations to star in period romance movie 'Tulip Fever'.
