Suri Cruise to voice movie character?

Suri Cruise, the daughter of Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise, is reportedly set to be offered the chance to voice a character in a movie.

According to People magazine, movie producer Ash R Shah and his firm, The Animation Picture Company, want to make an animated film about a polar bear at Belin Zoo, named Knut.

Speaking about the project, Shah said, "I see the heartwarming relationship between Knut and his caretaker, Thomas Doerflein, at the centre of the movie... Suri [Cruise] could speak the English voice of Knut."

Heiner Klös, curator at the Zoo Berlin said: "I can confirm that we received the offer and that we are giving it due consideration. When we have come to a decision, then we will handle the matter discreetly."

Polar bear Knut has been raised at the zoo since his mother rejected him at birth in December 2006.

Suri Cruise reportedly visited the zoo with her mother recently.
