St Trinian's film to be 'modern reworking'
The new St Trinian’s film in the works at Ealing Studios will not be a remake of the 1950s comedies but more a “modern reworking” of them inspired by the original Ronald Searle cartoons, according to Daily Variety.
The script is being written by Men Behaving Badly creator Simon Nye and Rupert Everett is set to take the double role of the headmistress and her roguish brother, played by Alastair Sim in 1954’s The Belles Of St Trinians, reports the newspaper.
