The brunette beauty - who stars alongside the 61-year-old Hollywood legend in new movie "The Sentinel" - is keen to work with the actor again and thinks he would be perfect for the show.

She said: "He could play my older lover."

Longoria plays a gun-toting Secret Service agent in the upcoming crime drama and co-star Douglas has revealed the stunning actress was the best shot out of the two.

He said: "The FBI, Secret Service, and state police all said that she probably shot better than 90 per cent of the police officers in the country."

Longoria has lifted the lid on the secret behind her gun-wielding skills.

She is quoted on website Premiere.com as saying: "I'm from Texas, so I've been shooting a gun since I was six. It was fun, though, because I don't get to do that on 'Desperate Housewives'."
