Los Angeles, April 26 - Actress Kate Beckinsale is excited about her bad girl role in the "Total Recall" remake.

"I've never been a bad girl before," showbizspy.com quoted Beckinsale, 38, as saying.

"I've never been the villain so that is very exciting for me. I love the fact my character slips from being this very concerned wife into this killing machine. And it was fun to make her American when she's nice and English when she's horrible," she added.

The science-fiction also stars Colin Farrell and Jessica Biel.
