Russell and the schoolgirls

Ealing Studios is to revive the St Trinian’s film comedies – with Russell Brand lined up to star in the first one.

Brand will play Flash Harry, the rakish small-time crook who helps the schoolgirls get into scrapes. Minder star George Cole played Flash Harry in the original Fifties film series.

It's old school Brand in flick

A LEGENDARY ladies’ man surrounded by babes dressed in school uniforms and fishnet stockings . . .

Nope, I can’t imagine why Bizarre Shagger Of The Year RUSSELL BRAND signed up for the St Trinian’s remake.

I hear supermodels LILY COLE and KATE MOSS – who is already a Brand conquest – have both been approached for cameos.

I can just picture the swordsman’s reaction when that script landed in his lap.

Russ was snapped looking incredibly comfortable as he filmed a scene for the film in London’s Piccadilly yesterday.

Here's one flash harry who left the house without looking in the mirror.

Big Brother presenter Russell Brand legs it as he films a movie based on the classic 1950s St Trinian's TV series, in which he plays loveable rogue Flash Harry.

But with a ponytail, a suitcase and a pin-striped suit, instead of his trademark black trousers and massive buffon, he somehow manages to look dodgier than usual.

Troop of stars expected for St Trinian's premiere


The movie revival of the classic British comedy series St Trinian's receives it world premiere in London tonight.

Fans are expected to throng Leicester Square to see the star-studded cast which includes Colin Firth, Rupert Everett, Russell Brand, Stephen Fry, pop band Girls Aloud, and OC actress Mischa Barton.

The co-director of the hotly-anticipated film, Barnaby Thompson, has described it as the "antidote" to Harry Potter in its depiction of British public school life.

Other stars of the movie, which was filmed in and around London, include Jodie Whittaker, Lily Cole and Celia Imrie.

The original cast featured George Cole, Alastair Sim and Joyce Grenfell.

The St Trinian's stories began life as cartoons by Ronald Searle. The first film, The Belles of St Trinian's, was released in 1954 and spawned several sequels.

Despite featuring sex and drugs the new St Trinian's movie will break with tradition - the students will never be seen smoking.

The previous St Trinian's students were notorious for enjoying cigarettes.

RUSSELL: 'TASTY' EVERETT TEMPTED ME

Russell Brand has said it was a "mystery" how he kept his hands off Rupert Everett, who dresses as a buxom woman in the new St Trinian's film.

Stars including Brand, Everett, Colin Firth and Girls Aloud walked the pink carpet for the world premiere of the movie.

And Brand said it was Everett, who plays unorthodox headmistress Camilla Fritton, whom he found "tasty", rather than the schoolgirls.

Brand, who stars as Flash Harry in the film, brought his mother along to the London Leicester Square premiere.

Brand said: "People ask, 'Were you not tempted by those schoolgirls in the film?' I told them they're children 'but Rupert Everett was a really tasty mistress'. How I kept my hands off him was a mystery."

Brand said he had been "nicking pens" from autograph hunters on the red carpet.

Asked whether he fancied any of Girls Aloud, he said: "Whoever's the most single."

Brand also joked of his recent Royal Variety Performance that the Queen had said to him afterwards: "A fellow once broke into my bedroom. There's a way in."

Brand said: "I said, 'All right ma'am, I'll be right over.' I love the Queen but I do believe there should be no head of state," he added.

It was Everett's idea to revive the famous British comedy series.

Russell Brand writes St Trinian’s review for heat!


Reliably cheeky Russell Brand was on fine friendly form last night at the premiere for the St Trinian’s movie, introducing us to his lovely mum Barbara at the after-party in London’s Cirque nightclub. He also kindly offered to write our review for us, along the lines of "Russell Brand makes a deft transition from small screen to big in an assured and highly impressive debut movie performance. Here, I'll lend you my pen..." Russell plays dodgy criminal Flash Harry in the modern update of the 50s/60s film series, which stars Rupert Everett as the school’s headmistress, Colin Firth, Lena Headey (300), Mischa Barton, Celia Imrie, Lily Cole and Girls Aloud as the school band. We also met the pretty and talented Juno Temple (Atonement), who plays pupil Celia in the film, and whose best friend made us feel very old by telling us she’s in her final year of GCSEs at school. St Trinian’s opens on Friday 21 December, and you can read our review of it in the edition of heat published that day.

Everett lets rip at Clooney (and Pacino, and Keaton, and ...)


Famed for his brooding disposition and stormy relationships, Rupert Everett has made as many enemies as friends in a career spanning two decades. But rarely has the actor poured as much indignation on so many colleagues in the film industry as he does in an interview published in The Independent Magazine today.

Speaking ahead of the release of his latest film, St Trinian's, in which he plays the headmistress of the eponymous school, Everett scorns a culture that he feels is undermining the best traditions of stage and screen. Film fans are being fed vast quantities of junk, he argues, rendering intelligent judgement and honest criticism all but impossible and "devaluing the currency" of good acting.

Everett has spoken of having sexual relations with men and women, although he maintains that he is gay. In today's interview, he attacks tinsel town's "homophobic" instincts, its shallow cult of "celebrity nonsense," and the "terribly promiscuous" tendencies of modern film.

But he saves his most brutal criticisms for some of Hollywood's biggest names, including Al Pacino and Robert De Niro. "De Niro, Redford, Keaton, Allen, Pacino ... They're all just tragic parodies of themselves," he says. "Al Pacino looks like a mad old freak now. I say give it a rest, or go and do some serious stuff."

Everett, who was born and brought up with his brother and maternal grandmother in Norfolk, was asked to leave his prep school for "being difficult," expelled from drama school more than a decade later for "insubordination" and claims his time at boarding school in the interim "calcified my heart". It seems old habits die hard. Conformity and Everett are not natural bedfellows.

"Our world is terribly promiscuous," he says. "The other day I saw a film called Because I Said So with Diane Keaton, and I thought, 'here's one of the women we loved most in 1970s cinema, debasing and humiliating herself in this load of trash'.

"Why? Because we're sheep, we just follow the herd ... It's just part of the huge amount of product that's put out now that's really bad. And it's our fault. We're all responsible for how the culture is. You can't draw a distinction between the celebrity nonsense on television and the film industry."

But he reserves his greatest fury for an unlikely object of hatred. "[George] Clooney thinks that, provided he does films which are politically committed, he's allowed to do Ocean's 11, 12, and 13", he says. "But the Ocean's movies are a cancer to world culture. They're destroying us."

And Clooney the man? "He's not the brightest spark on the boulevard. He'll be president one day. Mark my words, if he's straight, he'll be president."

Everett's Hollywood breakthrough came when he co-starred with Julia Roberts in the 1997 film My Best Friend's Wedding, playing her gay friend. Since then he has starred in several successful films for cinema and television, including Oliver Parker's The Importance of Being Earnest (2002) and the title role in Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Silk Stocking (2004).

Inspired by Oscar Wilde, who "pretty well invented the word 'homosexual,'" Everett says he is writing a screenplay of a film about the playwright and poet. He condemns The Judas Kiss, a play by David Hare documenting Wilde's infamous trial, on the grounds that Hare and the director, Richard Eyre, are not qualified to portray Wilde.

Everett insists: "I love David and I love Richard ... but not for that play." He adds: "Those people should never ever have thought about attacking the Oscar Wilde story, because they have no sympathy, or sensitivity, or sensibility. They're rigorously straight, the two of them. They cast Liam Neeson as Oscar Wilde. Why? Because he's big and Irish!"
