Kylie Jenner recently signaled that she may be ready to pursue a new path in entertainment.
The 28-year-old entrepreneur and reality television star shared her interest in acting during a recent interview with Vanity Fair.
According to Jenner, scripts have already begun landing on her desk as she considers expanding her career beyond business and reality television.
“I’ve actually gotten a few scripts, nothing that I feel is right yet, but I 100 percent want to do more,” Jenner said.
She also revealed the type of role she would most enjoy exploring on screen, noting, “I really like comedy. I think I’m good at it. Maybe next time I talk to you, I’ll be the lead of an action movie!”
