Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift has revealed that she is only interested in playing movie characters that she is obsessed with.

The singing sensation will be back on the big screen this summer, well her voice will be at least, with The Lorax.

The animated movie has already enjoyed huge success in American but Swift admits that she is not interested in just doing movies for the sake of doing them.

Speaking to the Philippine Daily Enquirer the actress said: "I've been reading scripts for about five years - just kind of under the radar, asking my agents to please send me everything that might be good. In my free time I just read and read.

"When I look at acting careers that I really admire, I see that it's been a precise decision-making process for these people.

"They make decisions based on what they love and they do only the things that they are passionate about. They play only characters that they can't stop thinking about."

Swift continued: "If I got a script that I thought was okay and a character that I kind of liked and could pull off but wasn't obsessed with, that would be unfair to someone else who might be obsessed with that character. So if I do a movie, you will know I cannot think of anything other than that character.

The Lorax has so far taken in excess of $258 million at the global box office, scoring a #1 hit in the States.

Dr Seuss'The Lorax is released 27th July
