French first lady Carla Bruni has reportedly accepted filmmaker Woody Allen's offer to star in his next movie.

Allen visited Paris back in June this year and announced his desire to sign the wife of French President Nicolas Sarkozy up for a film project and now it appears his wish has come true.

The news came in effect after French newspaper Le Parisien claimed that Bruni has agreed to his request and will work with the famed director in a new movie, scheduled to begin filming next year.

The publication reported: "Carla Bruni has accepted his proposition to star in one of his films. Her acting experience, however, is rather limited."

Bruni, a model and singer, did a small role in 1994 movie Pret-A-Porter.
