Britney Spears' career may be getting some boost in the acting arena. The pop star is in talks to return to acting in a new drama film.

Director Tommy Parker says that film 'Memoirs Of A Medicated Child' might feature the acting prowess of the 26-year-old Spears.

She is currently in negotiations to play the role of the mentally ill patient's girlfriend. "As far as Britney's concerned, we're talking."

They originally had their sights on Lindsay Lohan for the role.

This is not Spears' first time in acting in a film. She had starred in 2002's 'Crossroads' where she played a straight-A student in search for her mother.

Meanwhile, Spears is in a bitter custody battle with ex husband Kevin Federline for their two sons, Jayden James and Sean Preston.
