Jude Law is sick of getting starring roles purely because of his sex appeal.

The British actor says he gets angry when directors perceive him as just a pretty face, because he has so much talent to offer.

He moaned: "I'm only wanted by directors for the image I give off, and it makes me angry.

"I always wanted to be an actor not a beauty pageant winner."

Jude, 34, is currently at the Cannes Film Festival promoting his new movie 'My Blueberry Nights' with co-star Norah Jones.

The movie - which opened the prestigious event - sees Norah make her acting debut as a waitress who goes on a soul-searching journey across America and finds romance with a café owner played by Jude.

Jude has been cast as the stereotypical heartthrob, or hopeless romantic, in a number of films, including 'Alfie', 'Closer' and 'The Holiday'.

His real-love life has been a tumultuous affair earning him a reputation of being a love rat.

Jude - who is now rumoured to be dating American socialite Kim Hersov - split from his on-off girlfriend Sienna Miller last November, a year after he publicly apologised for having an affair with his children's nanny Daisy Wright.
