Dame Helen Mirren desperate to play the Queen again



London, Feb 6 : Dame Helen Mirren, who won an Oscar for her role in 2006 hit 'The Queen,' is desperate to take the part once again in a sequel.

The 62-year-old actress, who played the Queen in the account of royal life the week after the death of Princess Diana in 1997, said that she would love to make a movie about the queen's golden jubilee, which she celebrated in 2002.

"The Queen was such an individual, idiosyncratic film. It was one of a kind," The Sun quoted her, as saying.

"You can't repeat that. People have asked, 'Is there going to be a sequel?' Yes, lets do the Golden Jubilee. That would be interesting," she added.

Meanwhile the veteran actress recently revealed that she wants to appear in an episode of Detective Hercule Poirot's TV series.

Mirren admitted that she is a huge fan of the Belgian detective and wishes that she could star in an episode of the TV series.

"I'd like to appear in an episode of Poirot," she told the Daily Express.
