Strictly Come Dancing's Bruno Tonioli Lands Role In Hollywood Film

It looks like Strictly Come Dancing’s Bruno Tonioli has swapped the sequins and ballrooms of the dancing world for the glitz and glamour of Hollywood, with the star confirming that he has bagged a role in an American blockbuster.

How’s that for fancy, eh?

Bruno, who has been a judge on the Strictly panel for the last ten years, insisted that the role was “top secret” but he has already filmed his part and can’t bloomin’ wait for the cat to be out of the bag.

He explained: “Next year I have a part in a film. It’s my first one. It’s very exciting, I’ve already filmed it but I can’t say anymore about it.

"It’s top secret. I was an actor before I was a TV presenter and I really loved doing it. But because of my accent, my options were restricted when I got to the UK.”

And if all goes well, Bruno has high hopes that he’ll land a role in the next Star Wars movie, adding to The Daily Star: “My dream role is to be in ‘Star Wars’, I don’t care what I’d be, I’d be Chewbacca's­ handbag, darling.

“If the right offer comes I will pursue it.”

We can’t wait to see more of Bruno on the big screen… Although we can’t help but wonder what his frenemy, Craig Revel-Horwood, makes of it all…
