Rihanna has landed another movie role.

The sexy singer has been cast as the villain— opposite Vin Diesel and Paul Walker— in the sixth installment of "The Fast And The Furious."

"Rihanna impressed with her acting debut in 'Battleship,'" said a source. "Writers think she’ll be perfect for the role. Her character has plenty of bite and doesn’t take any prisoners — just like her in real life. It’s a step up the ladder for her and could lead to bigger action roles."

The movie will shoot in the UK this summer and be set there as well. That's the perfect spot, since Rihanna's moving there and all.
