Susan Boyle will be making her film debut on the silver screen after landing a role in "The Christmas Candle" which is based on Max Lucado's novella and is set in 1890.

The film will be directed by John Stephenson and will also star Samantha Barks ("Les Miserables"), Hans Matheson ("Clash of the Titans") and Lesley Manville ("Another Year").

The supporting cast includes Sylvester McCoy ("The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey"), John Hannah ("The Mummy"), Barbara Flynn ("Miss Potter), and James Cosmo ("Game of Thrones"), according to Aceshowbiz.

"Everyone on set is a delight to work with, and it's a fantastic experience to be part of the team," Boyle said. "I'm really enjoying getting dressed in the period costumes and stepping back in time, and although it's very cold filming on location, I'm wearing long johns under my bustle."

She adds, "Having just landed from the Academy Awards, I had an hour to unpack and repack and get to set. I'm very excited to be part of 'The Christmas Candle', and I'm loving every second."
