The Sunday Times – Scans and article

This is kinda old… but I really didn’t know until now, so I apologize. Found via maigold @ keiradaily. On December 13,2009 there was an article and a new photoshoot with Keira, and more British stars that are on stage at The Sunday Times Magazine. Scans and the article are thanks to Damian’s Dominion.

Hold The Front Stage
Seventy stars. Two photographers. One year of unprecedented success for the British theatre.

Curtain up

In a year when the world went bust, London theatre has been going boom. More than 3m of us attended plays in the capital alone — 26% more bottoms on seats than the previous year. Crafted by brilliant writers, directors and all-star casts, the play has become the thing. Our remarkable photographs, shot by Harry Borden and Tom Hunter, over two days in the stalls of the Royal Court Theatre, brought together the very best of our theatrical talent for an unprecedented shoot.

This is a stage debut for the Hollywood actress (left). But with a playwright mother, Sharman Macdonald, and an actor father, Will Knightley, she’s set to prove theatre is in her blood too.

First “Never Let Me Go” still on Empire Magazine

The blog “The Playlist” has a little scan from the first still of “Never Let Me Go” with Keira, Carey Mulligan and Andrew Garfield.

The new issue of Empire, has the first official image from the film, showing stars Carey Mulligan, Keira Knightley and Andrew Garfield, all looking typically attractive. It’s not the most earth-shattering image in film history, but a nice tidbit of one of our most anticipated films of the year.
It’s also interesting to note, while Keira Knightley is the name brand star here, it’s Carey Mulligan who is the star of the picture. “Obviously having Keira on boar helped raise finances a little,” Romanek told the magazine, “But we had to have Care in the lead role.” And this was even before she broke out during Sundance 2009 with “An Education.” Regardless when he and the producers saw the picture in Utah, they knew they had made the right choice. “We saw [An Education] early at Sundance and after seeing Carey on screen, we knew she was a serious move star in the making.”

If someone has a better quality of the scan and can send to us, it will very much appreciated :)

“Never Let Me Go” first look!

The site Best Movies 2008 has the first look of Keira and Carey Mulligan in “Never Let Me Go”. Well… kind of. They posted photos taken by Mark Romanek, director of the movie. In one of the pictures we can see Rachel Portman watching a playback of Never Let Me Go. It’s not much, but I thought it’s so cool! :D According with the article, this scene takes place fairly late in the narrative, so it’s considered spoiler. You can view the close up of the picture below, and the orginal here.

No ‘My Fair Lady’ For Keira!!!

According to The Daily Mail:

Keira Knightley will not play Eliza Doolittle in the new movie version of My Fair Lady.
The Oscar-nominated actress, currently energising the London theatre scene with her stage debut in The Misanthrope at the Comedy Theatre, has withdrawn herself from consideration for the role created by Audrey Hepburn in the landmark film based on the Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe musical.
Over a period of two years, the 24-year-old star met producers Cameron Mackintosh and Duncan Kenworthy to discuss the possibility of playing the Covent Garden flower girl who becomes a Maycould fair lady after she meets Professor Henry Higgins.

Although strongly linked with the role (she had singing lessons and sang for Mackintosh), Keira was never officially offered the part. She is believed to have felt that the project was taking too long to get off the ground.
