Actor and comedian Zizan Razak said the content from the local film and TV industry needs to be of higher standards in line with the taste of the modern viewers.

The actor said he is looking to diversify the characters he'll play in future films and will not be accepting roles that he has previously played on the big screen. "So far, I've accepted some offers and rejected others. The reason why I rejected some was because I've played that character before," he explained to Gempak recently.
