Love Island<\/a> and Hollywood are not two things we usually associate with each other.<\/p>\n

On the ITV<\/a> dating show being called ‘a liar and an actress’ is offensive; who can forget Davide Sanclimenti<\/a> shouting it at Ekin-Su C\u00fclc\u00fclo\u011flu<\/a>? <\/p>\n

However, for a handful of islanders it’s now the ultimate compliment. <\/p>\n

They\u2019ve swapped bikinis, grafting and firepit chats for scripts, costumes and starring roles.<\/p>\n

Here are the reality stars making movie magic (outside of movie night<\/a>)…<\/p>\n

Jake Cornish<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 2021, Jake told Liberty Poole \u2018you\u2019re my girlfriend\u2019 quite a few times, but hopefully the script for his new film is a little less repetitive and more imaginative.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The 25-year-old announced his new \u2018big role\u2019 on Instagram writing: \u2018Meet DI Jacobs \ud83d\udc68\ud83c\udffb\u200d\ud83d\udcbc Over the moon to announce that I am playing such a big role in the new @mrhyde_2022 untold story film \ud83c\udfa5\u2019.<\/p>\n

He added that it was \u2018a pleasure to be working alongside such an amazing cast and production team.\u2019<\/p>\n

Although this career choice is seemingly random Jake revealed that he\u2019s \u2018always wanted to be involved in films\u2019, and he \u2018can\u2019t wait to get started\u2019.<\/p>\n

The ominous tagline for the film is: \u2018Imagine if everything you\u2019ve heard so far is a lie.\u2019 I\u2019d rather not, to be honest.\u00a0<\/p>\n

His co-star is Adam Astill, who has appeared in Holby City and Eastenders. <\/p>\n

Olivia Hawkins<\/strong><\/p>\n

Before she entered the Love Island villa this year, Olivia already had plenty of experience being on camera.<\/p>\n

Olivia, 27, played a waitress in James Bond: No Time to Die, a partygoer in Top Boy, as well as small parts on Eastenders, Grace and Queens of Mystery. <\/p>\n

She also served as a body double for Emma Watson and Michelle Keegan.<\/p>\n

On top of all that, Olivia has worked alongside Jason Statham and felt lucky to have ‘a nice 10-minute convo about life’ with the legendary actor.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Tasha Ghouri<\/strong><\/p>\n

The excitement is building for the new Barbie movie, and Tasha could have been a part of it all.<\/p>\n

Tasha, 23, who made history as Love Island\u2019s first-ever deaf contestant<\/strong><\/a>, auditioned for a part as a dancer in Barbie.<\/p>\n

She wrote on Twitter: \u2018Fun fact I got to the final round of the Barbie film audition as a dancer but didn\u2019t get the job \u2013 filming was at same time as LI [Love Island], crazy how the universe works.\u2019<\/p>\n

While she may have got to rub shoulders with Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling if successful, she instead got to meet boyfriend Andrew Le Page. <\/p>\n

The model and dancer was also able to snap the role of Barbie in the villa during the heartbeat challenge. That was a main character moment for sure.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Jack Fincham<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jack, who won the 2018 series with Dani Dyer, caught the acting bug after working on gangster film The Last Heist with Dapper Laughs at the end of the last year.<\/p>\n

Jack may permanently swap reality TV for acting with the 31-year-old saying: \u2018I actually want to get into acting.\u2019<\/p>\n

He added to The Sun<\/strong><\/a>: \u2018I\u2019d love to do more films. I really enjoyed it.\u2019<\/p>\n

Just last month the former TOWIE star hinted that he hadn\u2019t given up on his dream when he wrote on Instagram: \u2018Great night at A Town Called Malice launch for @skytv. Great crowd, met some amazing people , Movie making legends. Watch this space. Grateful\u2019<\/p>\n

We\u2019re watching the space Jack!<\/p>\n

Dani Dyer<\/strong><\/p>\n

With Danny Dyer as her dad, it\u2019s hardly surprising that Dani took an interest in acting.<\/p>\n

Dani, 26, has starred in many low-budget UK films including Vendetta and Run for Your Wife alongside her dad, while still a teenager. Much more interesting than most people\u2019s first job!\u00a0<\/p>\n
