Queen Elizabeth II, Commander in Chief of Britain’s imperially-oppressive Commonwealth, has this week seen her Hollywood dreams dashed after her prior casting as an extra in the upcoming filming of a flick to commemorate the 65th anniversary of the day the English, Americans, Canadians and even the Aussie’s saved the French from occupying Nazi forces – and more importantly from themselves – was publicly rescinded. The film – based on the 1998  rather more Saxon tongued blockbuster ‘Saving Private Ryan’ – has been renamed ‘Saving le Private Renard’ to meet the demands of its Francophone target audience.

The film, to be once again based on the historic D-Day landings of allied troops in Normandy on June 6, 1944, is set to take over the formerly blood democracy-soaked beaches of Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno and Sword for filming over the coming weeks.

A bitter Queen, who has seen her hopes of a swan-song acting career shattered by direct hierarchical orders from the film’s director – Nicolas Sarkozy, President of the French Republic, has clearly failed to brush off the boulder on her shoulder.

More than happy to open bitter WW2-wounds her majesty asked reporters: “Why are there so many trees in France?”

“So ze Germans can march in the shade,” the Duke of Edinburgh hilariously responded (in the style of Jason Statham’s character ‘Bacon’ in the movie Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels).

Incumbent Presidents Obama and Brown – apparently both “really big men on campus” in Hollywood circles – have weighed in to get the Queen’s scripted character of 3rd dieing British solider with one leg blown off from the left, reinstated in the film.

The film is, of course, set to be shot in blanc and noir – as is the French persuasion for all things artistic – and represents the nation’s second venture into the world of movies, having released the film ‘La Haine’ back in 1995.

‘Saving le Private Renard’ is scheduled for release, straight onto D-DayVD, later this year.
