It is a role Fairbrass was born to play, and he grips it between his teeth and does not let go.

It’s a truly towering performance that cements his reputation as a screen hardman of the top rank.

The rest of the cast is a veritable Who’s Who of the creme de la creme of Brit gangster film talent, with the likes of Terry Stone ( Bonded By Blood), Eddie Webber ( The Firm), Larry Lamb ( The Hatton Garden Job), Jamie Foreman ( Layer Cake), Josh Myers ( Bonded By Blood 2), Roland Mannokian ( The Business) and Billy Murray ( Essex Boys) in the all-star cast.

There are also top appearances from Big Brother sensation and bareknuckle fighter Paddy Doherty in his acting debut, and legendary Happy Mondays frontman Shaun Ryder as a nasty piece of work called Mad Dog – who meets a particularly brutal and untimely end in the film.

If you can’t wait until Friday to see it, grab a slice of the action by watching the trailer – go to YouTube and search for Rise of the Footsoldier 3.

This is one movie you musn’t miss! BUSTY Sport babe Zoe Morrell ( is one of the few lucky people who’ve had a sneak peek at the new movie and she reckons it’s going to be a SMASH HIT! The 30F model from St Albans, Herts, admits she’s a big fan of gangster movies and reckons she’s a bit of a geek on them – and in her expert opinion, is one of the best she’s ever seen and certainly the best Brit gangster movie ever. Zoe, 28, said: “I was lucky enough to see an early copy of the film at a special preview. I have to say I was blown away by it. “It’s one of the toughest, most brutal gangster movies I’ve seen – and I’ve seen most of them! “It doesn’t hold anything back and some of the scenes are difficult to watch but that’s what make it utterly compelling. “It’s such an honest portrayal of the life of Pat Tate, it’s pure quality. “Craig Fairbrass is superb in the lead role and the all-star cast all turn in top-drawer performances. “I’m going to see it again when it’s out in the cinema on Friday, then I’ll download it, because I know it’s a movie I’ll want to watch again and again. “And there’s loads of ‘claret’ in it – it’s literally BLOODY fantastic!”
