'BRITAIN'S GOT TALENT' star Pudsey the dog is set to star in an upcoming Hollywood movie about a superhero canine.

The dancing dog has landed the lead role in a film about a pooch who is seemingly just a normal beloved pet by day, but by night becomes an incredible superhero. The film currently has the working title 'Superdog'. A source told the Daily Star: 'It's an action film so he will be able to show off his nifty moves.' Pudsey is now on tour with his teenage trainer Ashleigh in the US promoting themselves following their win on talent show 'Britain's Got Talent' earlier this year. Ashleigh seems all too happy with the idea that her furry best friend should take the step into film. 'I did watch 'The Artist' and thought it was an amazing film and Uggie was absolutely brilliant', she said. 'I think Pudsey would be perfect for that kind of thing because he loves film work and looking at cameras.'

It looks like they're going to be busy for the foreseeable future what with touring, the demands of Hollywood, a spot on the Royal Variety Show as was the promised prize for winning BGT and even a spot on the judging panel of upcoming talent show 'Top Dog'.
