Rita Ora defends new movie role as Oliver Twist remake is savaged by critics

mirror.co.uk:

Rita Ora has defended her new film Twist – a modern adaption of the classic Charles Dickens tale Oliver Twist – despite the film being slammed by critics.

It may only be January, but already some have predicted Twist will go down as “the worst film of the year” – which co-stars Michael Caine and Rafferty Law.

Under fire Rita – who has been making headlines over her lockdown 30th birthday since November last year – features in the cast as a gender flipped Artful Dodger.

And following abysmal reviews of the film – which is airing on Sky Originals – the star has spoken up in defence of the flick.
