Cheryl Cole for The Hangover III?

Cheryl Cole is rumoured to be making an appearance in the third film of The Hangover comedy franchise.

According to reports, the singer landed a part in The Hangover III after impressing the film's producers with her cameo role in What to Expect When You're Expecting as a TV talent show judge.

The Hangover star Zach Galifianakis, who played Alan in the first two films, sparked the rumours.

He said in an interview with FHM magazine in the US: "I have heard the rumours about her making a cameo and there seems to be something to them.

"But I don't know if anything's signed yet."

Shooting has already started on the film in Los Angeles, with the release date set for May 2013.
