Tennis ace Serena Williams is eyeing a move into acting when her sporting career ends.

The Wimbledon winner made a brief cameo in medical drama E.R. in 2005 but her character died in the show - and now she's looking for a more action-packed role.

Williams says, "I really enjoy acting. I like being in front of the camera. I think I should be an action star. I always wanted to die in acting and then I died (in E.R.) and I was miserable! I was like, 'I don't wanna die anymore', so my dying in acting career is over!

"Now I'm moving on to more action roles. I can do a real mean chop and a kick and I can jump high and run fast and cartwheel."
