Chris Rock's Ritchie ambition

May 30, 2010, 6:02 GMT

Chris Rock wants to star in a Guy Ritchie film.

The US comedian - who is currently promoting his latest film 'Death at a Funeral' - admits he was supposed to appear in 'Revolver' as Avi but lost out at the last minute to Outkast singer Andre 3000.

Chris told BANG Showbiz: "I'm a fan of Guy Ritchie. 'Snatch' and 'Lock, Stock'... I was supposed to be in 'Revolver' and then I saw one day that it was Andre 3000. I had the meeting. Maybe I was too expensive. Maybe I'll be in his next one."

Discussing his favourite film from the last year, the 45-year-old star admits 'Avatar' rates highly.

He said: "My favourite movie of this year? The last 12 months? I think 'Avatar' was pretty good. Pretty, pretty, pretty freaking good. And '(500) Days of Summer'. That really spoke to me. 'Precious' was funny. That was a knee-slapper that 'Precious'."
