Mischa Barton is following the advise of Richard Attenborough, the director of her next film, Closing the Ring, and is taking acting classes at London’s Royal Academy of Dramatic Art.
This sentence contains an error in diction. The word "advise" is a verb that means "to give advice to; to counsel." The correct word to use in this sentence is the noun "advice," which means "a recommendation concerning a course of action or a decision."
This is the corrected sentence:
Mischa Barton is following the advice of Richard Attenborough, the director of her next film, Closing the Ring, and is taking acting classes at London’s Royal Academy of Dramatic Art.
