''Adele is exactly what Matthew is looking for," a source told the Sun.
''He wants the highest-profile names in various fields to boost the film's cause and turn it into a mega-money franchise.
''You can't get much bigger than Adele in music, which is why he's so keen to get her involved. She'll be great value on the big screen.''
The Secret Service is set to start filming early next year.
Colin Firth and Michael Caine star as super agents fighting a team of villains headed by Samuel L Jackson. Elton John and David Beckham are also set to make cameo appearances.
