Madonna is planning to become a film director.

The 50-year-old singer has decided to take on her estranged husband, British 'RocknRolla' director Guy Ritchie, in the film making stakes.

Her brother Christopher Ciccone said: "Apparently she wants to be directing and that's what she'll be doing. Two directors in the family is never going to work."

Madonna made her directing debut last month with 'Filth and Wisdom', a comedy about a Ukrainian gipsy.

She has also starred in films 'Evita' and 'Desperately Seeking Susan'.

Madonna recently revealed making 'Filth and Wisdom' was: "Essentially my way of putting myself through film school".

Christopher also says he never thought the marriage would last, and claims Guy's attitude "got worse" towards the end.
