Jay-Z has revealed that he hopes to make an impression on the film industry some day.

The 39-year-old rapper has said that his goal would be to have a hand in various movie projects, but has admited that he's still in search of the perfect role that will leave a lasting imprint on cinema.

Jay-Z told MTV : "I'm taking my time. It may seem like it's taking forever, but when I do, it's gonna be something added to the genre.

"I just don't wanna do a couple movies and be gone. I want it to be something that's really important, so I'm taking my time with it. Hopefully when I arrive in Hollywood, I can leave a footprint."
