Cameron Diaz has an unusual wish for her 75-year-old co-star in her latest movie.

The 40-year-old actress wants to use voodoo magic to make Tom Courtenay younger after the veteran actor charmed The Mask beauty on the set of their new film Gambit.

And Diaz insists she wishes he was the same age as her after having so much fun with him on set.

There's Something About Scary: Cameron Diaz has joked that she wishes she had voodoo powers to make her older co-stars younger

She told the new U.K. issue of Elle magazine: 'I need a little bit of hocus-pocus magic voodoo to try get him to be, like, 40 years younger. He's so charming, so much fun.'

And it's not only Tom that she has enjoyed working with recently.

The actress also admitted that she had fun working with Michael Fassbender on Ridley Scott's The Counselor.

She said: 'He does have a lot of confidence.'

However, with Michael being five years younger than Cameron, she doesn't need to cast any black magic spell on him.

The actress, who has dated Jared Leto, Justin Timberlake and Alex Rodriquez in the past, also opened up about the possibility of having children in the future.

She added: 'I don’t need to have the children in my life be a part of my literal flesh. And anyway, there’s still a possibility of that, I ain’t that old. I’m feeling very … capable.'

The upcoming Gambit stars Colin Firth as a man who attempts to con his boss, played by Alan Rickman.

Scripted by Joel and Ethan Coen, the comedy caper sees Cameron Diaz play a cunning cowgirl who aids Firth's character on his quest.
