St Trinian’s will open in Australia on March 27th and today’s Sydney Morning Herald brought us an article about the film and its schoolgirls.

Straddling all the gangs is Gemma Arterton, who plays the head girl, Kelly. Arterton’s role was initially earmarked for The OC star Mischa Barton but the latter now enjoys one of the many cameos in the film, appearing as J.J. French, a former head girl who returns to help the girls in their hour of need.

“We have a great British cast with Rupert and Colin Firth. There are also some great cameos,” Arterton says. “There’s the lovely Russell Brand, Mischa and even Girls Aloud, who sing the St Trinian’s song. And you should see [Girls Aloud star] Sarah Harding in her costume. She looks amazing.”
