Kristen Wiig wants to do dramatic roles

Los Angeles: Funnywoman Kristen Wiig says she has always wanted more dramatic roles.

The 40-year-old star of `Bridesmaids` revealed that she also has a desire to do more writing and directing, reportedly. "You have to have some sort of context for a person to register in your brain, and I was introduced to the world as a cast member of SNL (Saturday Night Live). But I`ve always wanted to do dramatic stuff, to write and direct, do a lot of different things," Wiig said. "Comedy is where my heart lies," she added. "But there`s also something really satisfying about being able to step away with a small crew, become a character and get to know her for a few months at a time," she added.
