I’ve finally managed to buy a copy of the January 2008 issue of Empire UK. Now we have all major publications that Gemma was featured in when promoting St Trinian’s.

A sequel to last year’s St. Trinian’s movie will be released in 2009. Ealing Studios described St. Trinian’s: The Legend of Fritton’s Gold as a cross between The Goonies and The Da Vinci Code.

Oliver Parker and Barnaby Thompson will again direct, while writers Piers Ashworth and Nick Martin will return to pen the script. Speaking at the Cannes Film Festival, Thompson said he hoped cast members Gemma Arterton, Russell Brand and Rupert Everett will also reprise their roles. He told Variety: “It would be good to get the old gang back in.”

The fifth instalment of the series was a box office success last year. Filming on the sequel is scheduled to begin next January.

I finally managed to get my copy of St. Trinian’s and made 600+ captures of Gemma’s performance as head girl Kelly Jones. It was definitely fun to revisit the performance and the film! Unfortunately, however, mine is a rental copy that has no extra features whatsoever. So if anyone out there would be able to create screencaptures of the deleted scenes, featurettes, etc, please get in touch! Full credit will be given. Thank you. Enjoy these and look back for some videos on my next update!

3 and Out was released in the UK on Friday. I hope all of the Gemma fans have had the chance to go out and see it. I am planning to go next week myself. Feel free to post your comments on Gemma’s performance on this post.

St. Trinian’s is also now available on DVD. I am still waiting for my copy but as soon as I receive it, captures and clips will be posted. Thanks for the patience.

Ealing Studios is planning a sequel to its hit St Trinian’s film. Piers Ashworth and Nick Moorcroft, who worked on the 2007 project, are writing the sequel script now.

The ensemble cast of last year’s film featured Colin Firth, Rupert Everett, Stephen Fry, Lena Headey, Russell Brand, Gemma Arterton, Mischa Barton, Jodie Whittaker, and Lily Cole. There is no word yet who will reprise their roles in the planned sequel.

The schoolgirl comedy, based on the cartoons by Ronald Searle and reviving the popular film franchise from the 1950s and 1960s, had a budget of $13m (£6.5m) and has become one of the recent surprise smash hits at the UK box office, taking $24.8m (£12.3m) in its home territory.
