Keira Knightley is the New ‘My Fair Lady’
There’s a remake underway of My Fair Lady and Keira Knightley is playing the lead.
Mandrake hears that the 24-year-old actress has beaten Scarlett Johansson to the part of Eliza Doolittle in a new film adaptation of My Fair Lady.
Her victory comes as I can disclose that Joe Wright, who inspired Knightley to her best performance, in Pride and Prejudice, has been chosen to direct the film.
“Joe and Keira are looking forward to working together again immensely,” says a friend of the 37-year-old director.
Remakes are inevitable, this movie has already been on stage and screen in different incarnations in the past. There’s also a rumor that Daniel Craig may end up playing Henry Higgins, the other lead. Could make for some entertaining stuff.
