Supermodel Kate Moss is set to appear as herself in the movie adaptation of Jennifer Saunders' hit comedy series, "Absolutely Fabulous".

Moss, 41, had a cameo on the series in 2012 with fellow model David Gandy and fashion designer Stella McCartney, reported Daily Mirror.

"I can confirm Kate does have a part. It's not yet decided whether she'll have a speaking part but she'll definitely be in it," Saunder said.

"Absolutely Fabulous" saw characters Eddie Monsoon, played by the show's writer Saunders and Patsy Stone (Joanna Lumley) live in a boozy world of fashion and PR.

Saunders, 57, said Moss is her friend and it was a "no brainer" that she has joined the cast.
 

"She's a big fan of the show and we're friends, so aside from the fact she's the definitive model, it was a no-brainer. There'll also be a bit of Spice with Emma Bunton and Lulu.

"I've only just got the green light so I'm tweaking the script and I'm trying not to over-egg it."

Saunders said filming will kick off next month on a location at London Fashion Week, where they will be recording a footage which will be weaved into the finished product.
