Selena Gomez is buckling up to make her banging return on screens with a new thriller film.

The former Disney star has signed on to a thrilled titled, Spiral, in which she will essay the role of a social media influencer “whose addiction to social media is causing her body to literally fall apart.”

Earlier, Selena, while opening up about her role revealed that despite playing a social media addict, in her real-life she isn’t that attached to the online world.

“I woke up one morning and looked at Instagram, like every other person, and I was done. I was tired of reading horrible things. I was tired of seeing other people’s lives. After that decision, it was instant freedom. My life in front of me was my life, and I was present, and I could not have been more happy about it,” she had told Vogue.
