Love Island beauty Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu has hinted that she is set to branch out into the world of acting after finding reality TV fame.
The 28-year-old ITV reality show winner is poised to travel to the US to meet with top telly bosses while she has also set her sights on a soap role in the UK, too.
Ekin-Su, who is dating Davide Sanclimenti, was inundated with work offers after winning the dating show as she had a collection with Oh Polly and a collaboration with Beauty Works as well as taking part in Dancing on Ice.
However, Ekin-Su was later dropped by Oh Polly and, reportedly, Beauty Works. She is now reportedly planning to sue Oh Polly after the brand cut ties.
Ekin-Su, who recently revealed plans to 'distance' herself from Love Island, hasn't let her career ebbs and flows get the better of her though and recently revealed plans to get across the pond and embark on her acting career.
She revealed: "We're going with my manager and PR team.
"We've got some meetings lined up in LA so we're aiming big and high."
Ekin-Su added to The Sun how she was "aiming high" and even hoped to land a soap role in the UK, too.
She said: "I've done it before Love Island, I was on TV for soaps in Turkey and I have a degree in it, I did it at Uni so it's always been my career."
The Love Island beauty previously opened up to the Mirror in October about her acting plans.
She spilled at the time: " So my next move is acting. It's actually what I want to do, the main thing.
"But, due to just coming out fresh [from Love Island] – it's been two months – with brand deals and Dancing on Ice is going to take time... I think realistically it will be probably when Dancing on Ice finishes, then I'll be going into my acting full time."
And when asked if she would like to do a soap, Ekin-Su revealed: "I would like to do Coronation Street – or even Hollyoaks. Something that has got drama. I wanna be the psychopath girl on there that causes drama, basically.
"The one who's jealous, the one who's evil but married with a man and just maybe cheats on the man – just someone really crazy."
Before heading into the Love Island villa, Ekin-Su appeared in a Turkish soap.
She was cast in the Turkish television series Kuzey Yıldızı İlk Aşk – which translates to North Star First Love – where she played photographer Işıl, who later saves the life of the main character.
The plot of the show sees a man abandon his fiancée for a new woman after going to university.
However, two decades later, karma hits when his wife leaves him and he is forced to go back to his hometown and the family who cut all ties with him.
Ekin-Su, who studied musical theatre at East 15 Acting School, also starred in starred in Lancashore, which was labelled a "reality TV show following the lives of a group of students in Preston", during her time at the University of Central Lancashire.
