His pal and fellow 1D star Harry, 26, received huge accolades when he starred in 2017 Hollywood blockbuster Dunkirk as a soldier.
Liam – who has already worked on music for the 50 Shades Freed movie – took to his Instagram Stories to let slip his ambition to go one step further with a very gruesome role.
The dad of one said: “I want to be in American Horror Story if they make another series.
‘I want to get killed off in American Horror Story – that’s my New Year’s resolution.
“I want to be something evil. So let’s put that out in the world, let the world do its thing and come back in.”
The anthology horror television series, which has also featured pop queen Lady Gaga, is created by Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk and currently available on streaming service Netflix.
Filming for its tenth series is currently underway after being severely delayed by the coronavirus pandemic.
Yet vocalist Liam might be in for a bit of a shock should his AHS dream come true – after the cast revealed the dark subject matter can wreak havoc on set.
