Kim Kardashian’s acting career is in full swing and she can now add another role to her burgeoning resume.

On Friday, The Kardashians star, 45, looked every inch the pampered star on the Los Angeles set of her new flick The Fifth Wheel, directed by Desperate Housewives alum Eva Longoria.

Kardashian appeared to be on a break between scenes as she strolled around in gray bathrobe and comfy slippers while carrying a blonde wig.

Her face was made-up and her dark hair hung loose down her back and shining in the Southern California sunshine, and she clutched her cell phone.

The 5th Wheel follows a group of best friends from high school who 'attempt to reconnect during a weekend haunt to Vegas,' according to the official logline, per Variety. But a 'hot outsider,' the formal 'fifth wheel,' played by Kardashian - who recently revealed where she stands with ex-BFF Larsa Pippen -  shows up and 'they’re forced to face their messy lives, bad decisions and unraveling friendships.'

The movie was written by Paula Pell and Janine Brito, and is Longoria’s second time directing a feature film and her first for the streaming giant.

The cast also includes Nikki Glaser, Fortune Feimster, Brenda Song, Jack Whitehall, Casey Wilson and Scott MacArthur.

Longoria was also seen on set, wearing an off-white ensemble and looking ready for business, and Song also showed up in bright yellow outfit.

Kardashian shot a scene at a fast-food restaurant where she nibbled on French fries and sipped a milkshake with her co-stars Glaser, Feimster and Song.

The mom-of-four previously had leading roles in Hulu’s legal drama All’s Fair and in season 12 of American Horror Story, but The Fifth Wheel marks Kardashian’s first leading role in a feature film.

The sighting comes on the heels of Kardashian’s admission that she hasn’t been grocery shopping in more than a decade.

Speaking to her sister Khloe on her Khloe in Wonderland podcast, the SKIMS founder revealed she refuses to set foot in a supermarket and would only go to Ralph's in the US if they gave her the VIP treatment and shut down the store just for her.

'I feel like we went to Erewhon on our show like six years ago but before that maybe 12 years ... It's probably been like 15 years,' Kardashian said.

Kardashian – who shares North, 12, Saint, 10, Chicago, eight, and six-year-old Psalm with ex-husband Kanye West - added that she’s 'begging Ralph’s' to let her have free rein of their store.

Despite not stepping foot in a food store, Kardashian does go to the shopping mall with her eldest child.

She said: 'I go to the mall all the time, with North.'

Kardashian and her younger sister, 41, insist they are 'not incompetent human beings' and do mundane things like housework.

During the podcast, the budding film star also revealed she's been encouraging North to follow her interests with 'realistic courses' such as a brand-building class Kardashian explained: 'She had an idea of making hats and making jewelery... so we made it a course. It's been so fun to see her blossom.'
