Could Katy Perry be the next Kristen Wiig?

ABC/Craig SjodinKaty Perry might be coming to a movie theater near you.

The singer tells Australian radio station Nova 96.9 that once she wraps up her current Witness tour, she’s contemplating getting into acting.

“It’s time for me to live my life on my own schedule and terms, so that may look like doing some kind of other class, or like, maybe I’d like to make a film in the future finally, doing a kind of separate thing,” she says.

But she’s not looking to be dramatic. She’s not even looking to be the lead. Katy says she’d much rather be the “comedic timing best friend.”

“I would do a comedy,” she says. “But it has to be in the vein of a Kristen Wiig or a Jenny Slate, super dry, a little bit of a dark comedy, like a Bridesmaids girl.”

Katy kicked off the Australian leg of her tour on Tuesday in Perth. She wraps those dates up in Auckland, New Zealand on August 21.
