Kate Moss bares all in wild new movie based on her life

The supermodel doesn't hold back...

She may have become a household name by straddling Mark Wahlberg in nothing but a pair of Calvin Kleins, but when it comes to details about her own life, Kate Moss is surprisingly demure.

That is, until now, with the movie biopic Moss & Freud set to spill all of her secrets with the supermodel’s full approval.

British newspaper The Sun reports that scenes show Ellie Bamber playing Kate as she “racks up lines of coke to snort, leads her near-naked chauffeur into a sex club on a dog lead and almost gets killed in a car crash.”

Kate is billed as an executive producer on the tell all film.

What is Moss & Freud about?

The flick centres on her friendship with celebrated artist Lucian Freud, who was 52 years older than her, and painted Kate naked while she was pregnant in 2002 with her daughter Lila.

“She has supported the creation of the movie from day one and continued to have input and assist the team behind it,” a source told The Sun.

“Which means that Kate has seen the contents and not only given the nod to them remaining, but continues to back the producers.”

Derek Jacobi stars alongside Ellie in the titular roles.

Kate was just an ordinary 14-year-old from Croydon when she was discovered walking through an airport in 1998, before her sexy 1992 ad campaign made her a star.

“He taught me discipline, because I could not be late,” Kate said of their friendship during a 2014 interview with ShowStudio’s Nick Knight.

“If I was five minutes late, he would kick off. But only once I was five minutes late, and he said, ‘Are you on drugs?!’ And I said, ‘No, I’m pregnant!’”

The portrait he painted sold for  £3.5 million during a Christie’s auction in 2005.

What events are shown in the movie about Kate Moss?

A trailer for the film shows Ellie in a blue sequinned gown reminiscent of the dress Kate wore while celebrating her 30th birthday.

Her big bash was held at Claridge’s hotel in 2004, and the theme was F. Scott Fitzgerald’s book The Beautiful And Damned.

Other scenes show Ellie stumbling around clubs in the trademark fur coats Kate was known for at the time.

Kate was in a relationship with media entrepreneur Jefferson Hack at the time, who is Lila’s father.

He is being played by Will Tudor and the trailer shows once scene where the pair are laying in bed.

A terrifying real life car crash which saw Kate injured and rushed to hospital is also shown.
