London:
At 17, Justin Bieber is already a multi-millionaire, but the popstar wants to relive his impoverished upbringing in a film based on Oliver Twist, the classic novel about an orphan boy growing up in the streets.
The singer is desperate to play the protagonist in a remake of the classic 1968 musical Oliver and believes that his difficult childhood would make convincing in the role, reported Sun online.
"We didn't have anything in the fridge, except maybe luncheon meat for school and macaroni and cheese. I'd love to play Oliver Twist," said Bieber who was raised in a basement council flat in Canada by his single mother, a reformed drug addict.
But he has admitted his English accent will take some work.
"I can do it a little bit but I'm not amazing at it. When I try it, it sometimes comes out a bit Australian," saidBieber. his fans are sure to be delighted by their idol's second screen outing.
His first venture, Never Say Never, a 3D concert documentary containing unseen footage of his childhood, has been a worldwide smash.
