Rupert Everett Goes Wilde and Does Drag

Busy times ahead for out British actor Rupert Everett, with the star slated for two projects that look quite interesting - and very, very gay.

Everett has announced his intention to make a film about the post-prison years of Oscar Wilde, playing the legendary writer in his final days, hobnobbing in European nightclubs as a syphilitic shadow of his formerly great self.

Also on the docket for Everett is a remake of the classic British comedy The Belles of St. Trinian's, about a decidedly unorthodox girls' boarding school.

Everett will do drag to play Miss Fritton, the school's harassed headmistress, in a role originally essayed by Alastair Sim in the 1950s.

Both films are looking to go into production in the U.K. in 2008.
