Christina Ricci desperate to be an action star

Washington, Mar 1 : After doing a race-car thriller, actress Christina Ricci has been bitten by the action bug, and she now wants to be a full blown action star.

The 28-year-old star wants to reinvent herself as a big budget action star as she loved doing Speed Racer.

The Addams Family star is now calling on directors to offer her more high-impact roles.

"I just did Speed Racer. There's a lot of action and fighting. I really got into it. Ever since then I want to be an action star. I'm too small to be a reasonable action star. But I can be a spy, because it's good to be small if you're a spy. Because I can fit into small spaces," Contactmusic quoted her, as saying.

And it's not just the thrill of action; Ricci also wants to play a cop just to get into the uniform.

"I also want to play a cop. I also wanna have that uniform," she said.
