Los Angeles, CA (CNS) - Pop punk star Avril Lavigne is starring on her first lead movie role. She is taking her movie career one step further with a new “deep and dark” character.

The 23-year-old singer is upping her career as a serious thespian with a totally different character from the previous works she had done.

She tells The London Paper, “I’ve got a film role coming up - something you wouldn’t expect from me, something deep and dark.”

The “Complicated” star is no stranger to acting roles. She had minor roles in 2007’s “The Flock” and 2006’s “Fast Food Nation.” She was also the voice behind Heather, a teenage opossum, in the animated film “Over the Hedge.”

Avril has canceled a lot of concerts and TV Appearances because she lost her voice, she posted an explanation at her MySpace. Read it below.

Hey Guys,

I am at home right now taking it easy. I have been sick this whole tour, and now I have lost my voice. I have never canceled a show in my whole career and just had to for the first time ever. This sux! I am so sorry! I have been on the road for 60 days straight. I have had the flu 3 times and I never get sick, it just keeps going around. I think I am just run down. I just played 4 shows in a row in Texas (which is a lot for the vocals) and woke up in Vegas Tuesday with no voice. I thought I was gonna have to cancel that show, but I made it through…..barely! I still went on stage in Vegas and gave it my all, but unfortunately its interfering with my throat now. I had to eliminate songs.

I woke up yesterday and knew I wouldn’t be able to sing last night. My voice is so shot. We drove home yesterday and I went to my throat doctor. He stuck a camera down my throat….ewwww, I gagged!!! It was kinda funny though…..he said I have “Acute Laryngitis”.

So, um, yeah, that sux. I was supposed to play a show in San Diego yesterday and was supposed to perform on Jay Leno tomorrow and go live with Ryan Seacrest in the today, but I had to cancel that too. I’m at home resting my voice for 2 days and hope to be back out soon. Thank you for understanding. And once again, I sincerely apologize.

Avril
