Chace Crawford wants to be the next Kevin Spacey. The "Gossip Girl" actor - who plays spoiled schoolboy Nate Archibald in the U.S. TV show - is determined not to be typecast because of his role in the hit series, and believes he has what it takes to follow in the footsteps of Hollywood's top stars.
He said: "I want to do the edgy independent movies, like Leonardo DiCaprio did, but you have to balance it out. It's about carving out your leading-man role. 'Fight Club?' Yes! 'X-Men?' Yes! All sorts of different films. 'American Beauty?' Yes! I don't know if I could pull off a Kevin Spacey, but I'll try!"
