Knightley to make West End debut
-Posted by: SummerAngel
Keira Knightley will make her stage debut in the West End later this year in a modern-day version of Moliere's comedy, The Misanthrope.
The Oscar-nominated actress, 24, will play an ambitious American film star, the love interest of a British playwright played by Band Of Brothers and Life actor Damian Lewis, who leads the cast.
Lewis, 38, plays the "misanthrope" Alceste, who is disillusioned and angry with hypocrisy and vows to reject society.
But his plans are derailed when he falls madly in love with Knightley's character, Jennifer, a darling of the social scene.
Writer Martin Crimp's updated version of the work transports the action from 17th century Paris to contemporary London.
Tara Fitzgerald, Dominic Rowan and Tim McMullan are also in the play, which opens at the Comedy Theatre on December 17 and runs until March 13.

Keira's Domestic Abuse Advert Caps and Stills
-Posted by: SummerAngel
There are now stills and caps from the domestic abuse advertisment that Keira has recorded in the gallery. You can check them out at the below links.
Keira Knightley has lent her acting skills to a very good cause...
She's heading up a new campaign against domestic violence.
The A-list actress stars in a hard-hitting short film aimed at raising awareness of physical abuse.
In the footage Keira is seen returning home to her "partner", who slaps, punches and kicks her, leaving her in a crumpled heap on the floor.
Explaining why she chose to participate in the shock tactic campaign, designed to raise money for domestic violence charity Woman's Aid, Keira said:
"While domestic violence exists in every section of society, we rarely hear about it. We may not think we know someone who has experienced domestic violence, but this does not mean that it is not happening.
"Domestic violence affects one in four women at some point in their lifetime and kills two women every week.
"Without the services provided by Women's Aid, many more women could be at risk of being killed, yet without donations the charity may not exist this time next year. Please donate £2 a month to Women's Aid to help save lives."
The motion picture is produced by Joe Wright, who directed Keira in Atonement, and launches through cinema, TV, print and online today.

"We lived in a house in Wales together (during filming). We'd play cards, do crosswords, that kind of thing," she added.
KNIGHTLEY BORROWS, NOT BUYS
-Posted by: Quivi
KEIRA KNIGHTLEY has found a novel way to weather the global economic crisis - the actress has taken to renting designer shoes instead of buying new pairs, reports ContactMusic.
The Love Actually star is wary of spending excessively during the ongoing recession, opting instead to save money by borrowing expensive footwear. Knightley, 23, explains, "I think when I was very young and I suddenly started earning a bit of money and I could actually afford to buy shoes, I got very excited and bought a lot. I mean a lot!
"I haven't bought any in quite a while. Now I just rent them for the day. They give them to me for the day and I give them back in the evening, which is good."

British actress Keira Knightley confessed that she giggled her way through the love scenes with co-star Dominic Cooper in her latest movie The Duchess.
The 24-year old actress revealed she laughed when Cooper had to act in a nappy, thesun.co.uk reports.
Said Knightley: "During the sex scene I was luckily fully clothed, but he had to wear this skin-coloured nappy. Sex scenes are never the easiest and you're meant to be very supportive of each other, but I just completely lost it. The director had to tell me, 'Pull yourself together'."

Keira gets the giggles in bed
-Posted by: SummerAngel
Keira Knightley has confessed she couldn't keep a straight face while filming sex scenes for The Duchess.
The 24-year-old actress revealed she kept getting the giggles as her co-star Dominic Cooper, 30, had to wear a nappy, The Sun reports.
Keira said: "During the sex scene I was luckily fully clothed, but he had to wear this skin-coloured nappy."
She continued: "Sex scenes are never the easiest and you're meant to be very supportive of each other, but I just completely lost it.
"The director had to tell me, 'Pull yourself together'."
Dominic said of his 'nappy': "We just laughed at it continually. It was a relaxed atmosphere. We had complete trust and faith in the director that it would be very tasteful.
"We had to just laugh our way through it all because at times it was ridiculous."
He continued: "They are certainly very intimate scenes. I sometimes can't stand them because in films sometimes they are just thrown in for no apparent reason.
"Certainly with a relationship of these two characters it was essential that we saw how close and intimate they are, having a desperate need for belonging and love."
KEIRA KNIGHTLEY - KNIGHTLEY SHRUGS OFF NUDE SCENE WITH MILLER
-Posted by: SummerAngel
Actress KEIRA KNIGHTLEY was unfazed when her THE EDGE OF LOVE co-star SIENNA MILLER stripped completely nude to film a bath scene together - insisting it's all part of her job. The stars play two lovers of poet Dylan Thomas in the 2008 period drama, and both bared their flesh for the steamy scene. But while Knightley opted to remain partially clothed for shoot, she insists she wasn't alarmed when Miller got naked before jumping into the tub. Instead, she was more concerned about the freezing temperatures of the bath water. Knightley tells Moviefone.com, "I think we're both used to doing things like that in our job. It was very soapy water, and it was a closed set and all the rest of it. And I actually had clothing on. She didn't. Well, I had something on. No, it was sort of fine. It was just a problem because the bath water got really cold."
Keira Knightley rules out Pirates 4
-Posted by: SummerAngel
Keira Knightley has said she won't be starring in the next Pirates Of The Caribbean movie.
The British actress, 23, has ruled out returning to the Disney series, despite Johnny Depp signing on for a fourth outing as Captain Jack Sparrow.
"It was a completely fantastic experience, and it was an amazingly large portion of my life, but I don't think I need to go there again. I think that it's done," she said in an interview with Moviefone.
Keira - who played Elizabeth Swann in the first three Pirates flicks - will be first in line at the box office though and added: "I'm very excited to see the next one. And [Johnny Depp] is so wonderful in that character. I think it'll be wonderful."
The move will come as a blow to producers who will now have to look elsewhere for a leading lady. They are already rumoured to be lining up comedian Russell Brand to play Captain Sparrow's brother.

Knightley, who was recently named as the actress most people would cast in a supporting role in their own movie, added that death by dairy cow would be a "really bad way to go".
