Twitter star Ashton Kutcher is said to be planning to test his acting skills with a star-turn on Broadway.

The star – now becoming more famous for his love of Twitter than his acting – is reportedly considering an offer to star in Neil LaBute’s Fat Pig.

If he takes the part, Kutcher, who is married to actress Demi Moore, will play Tom, a nice-looking guy who dates sweet but heavy-set Helen.

However, early reports suggest that the actor may struggle to be taken seriously.

Broadway journalist Michael Riedel said: “If he says yes to the play, I think you can safely say that the Tony Award is going to be his to lose in 2010.

“Can you imagine say, Daniel Craig or Hugh Jackman, both appearing in A Steady Rain, mounting much of a challenge to the star of Dude, Where’s My Car?”

He added: “Dates and a theatre are yet to be determined. But keep your eye on Kutcher’s Twitter page. He’ll probably beat the arts bloggers to the punch with the official announcement.”
