One Direction already has two blockbuster movies under their belt, but the Daily Star Sunday reports that the British boyband is close to singing a reality show deal.
"Producers have met with the band's representatives and it's pretty much a done deal," an insider told the newspaper. "Details are being ironed out, including budgets and when to film."
As the band's latest documentary "This Is Us!" proved to be a box office success, grossing $28.9 million, ITV chiefs are looking to develop a multi-million dollar reality series following Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Louis Tomlinson, Liam Payne and Niall Horan around with cameras for at least ten weeks.
"They are at the top of their game and that will translate into big ratings," said the insider. Filming was slated to begin in February and include footage from the band's world tour, but the boys have asked for a break after having only 14 days off this entire year, so it may be pushed back to mid-2014.
"We had a bit of time off after finishing the world tour but the new album came out last week so we are doing all the promo for that," Horan recently said. "Jet lag kills me. The flying is OK, I don't mind that - but the jet lag is a nightmare...We've got some time off over Christmas. It will give us a chance to relax and enjoy it with the family. We are busy but you just have to get on with it.
One Direction's latest album, "Midnight Memories," has scored a second week at the top of the U.K. charts and debuted at No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard charts, making them the first group in history to debut at No. 1 with its first three albums.
