Rita Ora has suggested Charles Dickens would have been a fan of her modernised take on his classic Oliver Twist tale, despite the film being panned by critics.
The 30-year-old singer stars as Dodge, a gender-switched version of the Artful Dodger in the newly released Twist, which sees Rafferty Law in the titular role.
And in an interview with The Hits Radio Breakfast Show’s Fleur East on Friday, the star asserts that Dickens, who died in 1870, may well have told the story their way today.
