THE much-anticipated Downton Abbey movie is being hailed as a blockbuster — but the jealousies, rivalries and romances on-screen are nothing compared to the shocking secret dramas that exploded during filming! Many of the original cast members on the long-running PBS show — including Maggie Smith, Michelle Dockery, Laura Carmichael and Brendan Coyle — are back in the flick, which has die-hard fans buzzing. Now, GLOBE reveals the behind-the-scenes secrets of the new movie — including who begged for a role, which stars had affairs, who was banned for booze issues and the diva who threw tantrums over cake. ■ In real life, Laura, who plays plain-Jane sister Lady Edith Crawley, and Michael Fox, a lowly servant in the series, plunged into an affair during the final season and now…

LATE Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin’s dad — who’s been banned from granddaughter Bindi’s wedding — insists he does not disapprove of the youngster’s upcoming marriage to former wakeboarder Chandler Powell. After a decade of silence, family patriarch Bob, whose wildlife-loving son died when a stingray’s barb pierced his heart in 2006, is speaking for the first time of the family split that must have the beloved reptile-wrangler rolling in his grave. As GLOBE reported last week, Bindi, 21, is so furious with her gramps, she banned Bob, 80, from her nuptials with Chandler, 22, a native of Arizona. But Bob says it was all a misunderstanding. After he’d refused to speak to a reporter who asked him about Bindi’s July engagement, he was wrongly quoted as disapproving of her marriage.…

MAGGIE GYLLENHAAL, who first dropped jaws by dropping her drawers for kinky spanking scenes in her breakout 2002 film, Secretary, says she’s been doing crazy sex scenes for half her life — and loves it! In fact, the actress, mother of two young daughters — Ramona, 12, and Gloria, 7, with her husband, actor PETER SARSGAARD, 48 — is darn satisfied with her raunchy endeavors: “I am 41, and I’ve spent nearly 20 years doing sex scenes, intimate ones and unusual ones,” she boasts. “I’ve always been really proud of that work.” And as if to prove that the Oscar-nominated star is up for almost anything, she’s turned to porn in her HBO series, The Deuce, which is now in its third season and focuses on the New York sex…

KEVIN HART’S wrecked muscle car will be stripped down by the California Highway Patrol to determine the cause of the Sept. 1 crash that landed the comic in the hospital for emergency surgery. The Ride Along star and his driver pal endured serious back injuries when his 1970 Plymouth Barracuda went hurtling through a fence and rolled down an embankment. Now sources say officials are investigating if the vintage car was properly restored — and Hart is struggling to walk without pain.…

AMONSTROUS maniac shot and killed a Wisconsin mom in front of her teenage son while she was teaching him how to drive, cops say! Tracey Smith, 46, was giving her 17-year-old son a driving lesson on Aug. 30 when they got into “a minor accident,” authorities say. According to court papers, the two were waiting to make a left turn at a Milwaukee intersection when the thug, Matthew Wilks, cut into their lane, hitting their car. Smith’s son says she got out of their car to talk to the demented driver — who turned into an out-of-control crackpot! Cops say he first threatened to kill Smith, then pulled out a firearm and plugged a bullet in her chest as her horrified son watched. Smith’s son, who has not been identified…

BAD-BOY rapper Bobby Brown can’t seem to stay out of trouble — he was bounced from a flight at the Los Angeles airport for “being drunk!” Brown, 50, was on a JetBlue flight headed for Boston on Sept. 9 when he was allegedly involved in a dustup over drinks. Sources claim the ex-hubby of late diva Whitney Houston admitted boozing before boarding and complained when he was told he couldn’t have more alcohol. At that point, all the passengers were removed from the plane. They were later allowed to reboard — except for Bobby, who was met by cops. Says a JetBlue rep: Brown was “removed from the aircraft prior to departure after crew members observed indications of intoxication.” The airline, however, gave him a refund for his first-class ticket!…

GREASE star Olivia Newton-John is so desperate in her last-ditch battle against incurable stage IV cancer she’s knocking back a bizarre LSD-like potion concocted by a witch doctor in the Amazon jungle! And now, the magic brew she’s used at the urging of vitamin-mogul hubby John Easterling has left her convinced she will beat the deadly disease, say sources! After the 71-year-old Physical singer downed “a little cupful” of the plant-based hallucinogen ayahuasca, she was hit with “room-spinning” delusions and nausea. But shortly after, she says, “my whole body was at peace. I had a feeling of euphoria. I’d been taking antidepressants for six months, but from that day, I stopped.” The Summer Nights songbird had stunned doctors by winning two long battles with cancer — first a bout with…

She wants alimony, child support AND their mansion on Martha’s Vineyard MICHELLE OBAMA stormed out on a stunned Barack after the former president refused her demands for alimony, child support and the couple’s new Martha’s Vineyard mansion in a blistering $150 million divorce showdown, sources tell GLOBE! The furious former first lady unloaded on her shocked 58-year-old hubby, telling him she wants everything due her after sacrificing her work as a Harvard-grad lawyer to raise their kids and build his political career, insiders say! Now fed-up Michelle, 55, has hired a top-gun divorce lawyer for a bloody, bare-knuckle courtroom fight — and has her eyes set on the $15 million beachfront estate they’re buying in Massachusetts, a source says. “She’s talking of leaving the marriage and starting up her own…

STUNNED Sarah Palin was blindsided by her husband Todd’s shocking demand for a $20 million divorce, sources say. “Sarah had no idea it was coming,” snitches an insider. The fisherman filed paperwork for the split in Anchorage Superior Court on Sept. 6, citing “incompatibility of temperament” that makes it “impossible to live together as husband and wife,” according to documents obtained by GLOBE. Sources say the former Republican governor of Alaska — who branded herself a “pit bull in lipstick” during her 2008 vice-presidential campaign — was dumbfounded by Todd’s bid because they’d weathered so many storms during their turbulent 31-year marriage! The couple, both 55, had survived the stress of her national political campaign and Todd’s alleged jealousy over Sarah’s success as a moneymaking author and Fox News commentator.…

KOURTNEY KARDASHIAN flipped her wig when sister Kim told her she was going bald — and now she’s getting plasma treatments injected into her head in a desperate attempt to grow some fuzz! The tress distress unfolded on the season 17 premiere of Keeping Up with the Kardashians when Kim, 38, noticed her big sister’s shining pate. “Kourtney, your hair is gone!” shrieked Kim. “You’re bald! You have to go to the hospital right now … Oh my God! I’m afraid for your life!” Kourtney, 40, blamed the “hole in my head” on her severe updo ponytail, swearing to get off her high ponies from now on.…

FRENCH model agency czar Jean-Luc Brunel — who’s accused of recruiting teen girls for twisted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein — has mysteriously vanished before he could spill the beans on Prince Andrew’s play dates with the dead American billionaire! Now American law enforcement sources tell GLOBE that Interpol and French police are trying to determine if Brunel, who discovered supermodels Christy Turlington, Milla Jovovich, Jerry Hall and Angie Everhart, is dead — or running for his life. Just as French cops were probing Brunel’s ties to the British royal and his perv party-pal, who was murdered in his New York City jail cell Aug. 10, the 72-year-old model agent dropped off the face of the Earth! “He is a ghost who has left no trace,” a Paris investigator tells GLOBE. “There…

THE Loch Ness monster is a giant EEL! That’s the claim of scientists who have analyzed hundreds of DNA samples taken from the Scottish lake where the fabled creature lurks. “Eels are very plentiful in Loch Ness,” says Prof. Neil Gemmell, a geneticist from the University of Otago in New Zealand. “We can’t discount the possibility that what people see and believe is the Loch Ness Monster might be a giant eel.” His team took more than 250 samples of water at different depths up and down the loch. The scientists claimed to have identified 15 different species of fish in Loch Ness, but their analysis ruled out the presence of large animals long suspected to be the mythical “monster,” including a shark, a sturgeon, a catfish or even a…

STONE-DEAF radio talk show icon Rush Limbaugh can only hear by using two groundbreaking devices that have been placed inside his brain! “He has had cochlear implants,” says clinical audiology professor Jackie L. Clark of the University of Texas at Dallas, who has not treated Rush. “Each requires a skilled surgeon to drill a hole in [his] skull and insert an electrode inside!” According to experts, Rush’s deafness may have been caused by abuse of prescription drugs. But that was banished to the past when the conservative pundit, 68, underwent two delicate surgeries to restore his hearing. In December 2001, the first implant brought back function to his left ear. He repeated the procedure on his right ear in 2014. “A cochlear implant is different from a hearing aid, which…

WITH her oldest off at college, former wild child Angelina Jolie is “rediscovering” herself. “When your children are little, you feel more ‘mommy,’” says the 44-year-old mother of six. “When they are teenagers, you start to remember yourself as a teenager. You see them going to punk clubs and you wonder why you can’t go.” The Maleficent witch — whose kids are now ages 11 through 18 — adds: “I’m in this fun moment where I’m rediscovering myself.”…

SCREEN legend Donald Sutherland is on his last legs, friends fear, after the 84-year-old actor was spotted looking shaky and exhausted at the prestigious Venice Film Festival. The M*A*S*H movie star needed assistance to get up from his seat and had to be aided when he exited one of the city’s famed canal boats! “Donald has been looking very frail and very tired,” says a pal. “He gets worn out easily and has to sit down a lot. I’m afraid he may not have much longer!” As GLOBE reported in 2017, the Dirty Dozen icon frequently carries an oxygen tank — and a medical expert says the former four-pack-a-day cigarette addict may be suffering from a deadly lung condition! After seeing recent photos of the Hunger Games villain, New York-based…

WORRIED that winds from Hurricane Dorian might blow away his tiny Smart car, a brainy Florida man parked the pint-sized vehicle in his kitchen for safekeeping! As dangerous weather threatened Patrick Eldridge’s Jacksonville home, he sought refuge for his tiny ride — but his wife, Jessica, had already claimed the available space in their garage for her vehicle and other items. So to avoid having to clear out more space, Patrick proposed the indoor alternative! “I said there was no way he could. He said he could,” Jessica recalls. “He opened the double doors and had it in. I was amazed.”…

IT’S happened at last! Hard to believe but someone has been busted for supplying the poisonous pills that killed a celebrity. In this case, purported pusher Cameron James Pettit has been accused of providing rapper Mac Miller with the deadly fentanyl-laced brew that led to his September 2018 death. And WE say it’s about time! In just three years, Miller, Tom Petty and Prince have OD’d and died from this ferocious killer. Of course, the list of celebs who’ve passed away from drugs either supplied by dealers or greedy doctors goes all the way back to Elvis Presley and beyond. But it’s very rare that the money-grubbing lowlifes who leach off the stars’ addictions are brought to justice. It’s something we’ve covered time and again — in many past GLOBE…

PROJECT Runway fashion star Chris March went to his grave bitter, broke — and overflowing with a slew of shocking secrets about longtime Runway judge Heidi Klum and celeb pals Madonna, Meryl Streep, Lady Gaga and Beyoncé! The grossly overweight 56-year-old designer died of a heart attack on Sept. 5 following a barrage of health problems from a near-fatal fall in his apartment in 2017. He had hit his head, laid unconscious for four days and then spent two months in a medically induced coma that left his right arm and both lower legs paralyzed. Broke and forced to move from the Big Apple to a live-in medical facility in Stockton, Calif., the clothes king hoped to raise $100,000 to pay his bills on a GoFundMe site and was devastated…
