It's a busy time for Little Mix right now, the girls are set to embark on a mammoth world tour, but it seems that's not stopping them as Jade Thirlwall is 'in talks' to star in the live-action remake of the classic Disney film Aladdin.

According to reports, Jade is 'in talks' with bosses to play Princess Jasmine in the film, despite having no previous acting experience.

A source told a national newspaper, "Jasmine is Jade’s perfect role, so she’s delighted to have got this far in the process. The talks have been going on for some time now."

They later added, “And the longer they go on, the better her chances are looking. All of the girls have their fingers crossed for her, as they always support each other."

Jade, who is a massive fan of Disney, is yet to comment on the new rumours.

Fans of the singer have also been petitioning online for Jade to play the role of the Princess in Guy Ritchie's live-action remake.

A Little Mix fan account on Twitter shared the advert along with side by side snaps of Jade and animated character Jasmine, urging her to audition for the role.

According to reports, filming for the remake is set to start later in the year.

Meanwhile Little Mix delighted their fans over the weekend when they announced their fourth single from their album 'Glory Days'.

The girls took to their social media accounts to reveal they will release the track 'Power' with a little help from Stormzy.

The group later revealed the official single artwork for their new track, which they confirmed was drawn by one of their biggest fans.
