An insider let it slip that Delevingne became close friends with actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson during her film debut in the 2012 remake of "Anna Karenina," ironically Aaron's wife Sam Taylor-Wood is set to direct the "Fifty Shades" movie.

The source said, "[Cara] is a global icon now and a good actress as well and Sam wants her in the movie - though which part exactly hasn't been established."

"[Cara's] agent has also been talking to Kelly Marcel, the screenplay writer. And, if needs be, a strong role will be written in for her."

Whether or not she receives the "Fifty Shades of Grey" role Delevingne is set to appear in the film "Kids in Love," a drama about hard-partying young Londoners, "The film is all about rich kids who live a wild lifestyle filled with parties and drugs.

The source went on to say, "It will be Cara's first big screen role, so she's really excited about it and is eager to make sure that she does a good job. Her name in itself will obviously be a big draw for the film too."
