“FUNNYMAN” Robin Williams says he has been asked to track down his Mrs Doubtfire glad rags and play Scottish singing sensation Susan Boyle in a movie.

The actor, a box office hit when he cross-dressed to play Mrs Doubtfire in 1993, has been approached by Hollywood film executives to play the 48-year-old singing sensation’s remarkable rise to stardom.

“I’ve been asked if I want to play Susan in the movie,” Williams, 57, reportedly told the Daily Star newspaper in the UK.

“I think she’s incredible. That clip of her singing on Britain’s Got Talent was extraordinary. So inspiring. It was quite a shock when she began to sing.

“I saw some other clip of her singing Cry Me A River a few years ago. It was incredible. She’s got a really great voice.”

To prove how good he would be as Susan Boyle, Williams has been doing impressions of her by belting out her audition song I Dreamed A Dream in a thick Scots accent to his mates.

Williams is one of an army of US celebrities who have taken the spinster to their hearts since she first appeared on Britain’s Got Talent earlier this year.

Boyle is finishing an album, with the first single expected to be Cry Me A River, and is now manageed by Britain’s Got Talent judge Simon Cowell.
