Taylor Swift has been cast in a big screen version of the stage musical “Cats,” in what will be the pop singer’s biggest movie role so far.
The 28-year-old “Look What You Made Me Do” singer will join Oscar-winning singer and actress Jennifer Hudson, talk show host James Corden and veteran British actor Ian McKellen in the movie.
Composer Andrew Lloyd Webber’s “Cats,” based on a book of poems by T.S. Eliot, was first staged in London in 1981 and has been produced around the world.
Swift, a 10-time Grammy winner whose “Reputation” album was the biggest seller of 2017 in the United States, made her film acting debut in the 2010 romantic comedy “Valentine’s Day.”
