Movie Producer To The Stars Accused Of Drunkenly 'Swinging Punches' At Boyfriend

Outside Court: Randall
An actress turned film producer, who has worked with some of the biggest names in Hollywood, appeared in court today, accused of drunkenly “swinging punches” at her boyfriend at his £1.3m apartment.

Nice-born Adriana Randall, 34, pleaded not guilty to assaulting Jean Francois Mondin, 37, claiming self-defence.


She appeared at Lavender Hill Magistrates Court, which bailed her to stand trial at Wimbledon Magistrates Court on January 8, next year.


Randall is charged with assaulting Mr. Mondin on December 17, last year at Apartment 98, Cascade Court, 1 Sopwith Way, Battersea.


Prosecutor Norleen Iba told the court: “The incident was at the home address of the complainant and the defendant was drunk and there had been an argument.


“The complainant went into the kitchen and she followed and started swinging punches and slaps, cutting the cheek and eyebrow of Mr. Mondin.”


Randall, now living at a £2.7m flat at 10a West Halkin Street, Belgravia claims her boyfriend is mentally-ill and suffering Post Traumatic Stress Disorder as well as abusing drugs.


The court heard Mr. Mondin has also made a withdrawal statement regarding the charge and is not expected to give evidence against Randall.


In 2016 she was a producer on ‘Triple 9’ an action crime thriller starring Kate Winslet; Chiwetel Ejiofor; Casey Affleck and Woody Harrelson.


She appeared in 2015’s ‘Experimenter’ alongside Hollywood stars Winona Ryder and Peter Sarsgaard; ‘The Price of Desire’ a biography starring Orla Brady and 2016’s ‘The Call Up’ a Sci-Fi thriller.


As a producer she made 2017’s ’Tulip Fever’ starring Judi Dench, Christoph Waltz and Tom Hollander.


She is the executive producer of 2015’s mystery thriller ’Strangerland’, starring Nicole Kidman, Joseph Fiennes and Hugo Weaving.


Randall debuted as a producer on 2014’s ‘Wish I Was Here’, a comedy drama, starring Zach Braff and Kate Hudson.
