Rihanna battled some bad aliens in "Battleship," but now it seems she'll be tackling a much friendlier extraterrestrial life form in her animated flick, "Happy Smekday!" She's set to play the lead alongside "Big Bang Theory" Emmy-winner Jim Parsons.

The flick, based on Adam Rex's book "The True Meaning of Smekday," follows an alien race who come to Earth to hide away from their enemies. When one of the aliens accidentally spills the beans about their hideout to the bad guys, he must go on the run with a teenage girl. The twosome then goes on a road trip through a dystopian America, learning about humanity along the way.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the film is slated for a 2014 release. "Antz" and "Over the Hedge" director Tim Johnson will helm the DreamWorks Animation project, with "Get Smart" screenwriters Tom J. Astle and Matt Ember penning the script.

It's just another film credit for Ri, who has begun her transition from singer to singer/actress. Ever since her appearance in "Battleship," roles have been steadily coming her way.

"I got a few scripts, actually, a lot of incredible roles," she told MTV News recently. "Some of which I felt were a little too big for me, being that I never did a movie. So I wanted to really get my feet wet, try it, see what it was like and know how I wanted to move from there. I'm really glad 'Battleship' turned out to be the first one."

She was recently spotted on the set of "End of the World," confirming her long-rumored cameo in the Seth Rogen comedy.

She shot down chatter that she would play Whitney Houston in a biopic of her life, and her rep recently denied rumors that she would be in the next "Fast and The Furious."
