Keira Knightley For My Fair Lady?

Can Hollywood not do anything original anymore? Variety report that Keria Knightley is set to play Eliza Doolittle in a remake of the classic My Fair Lady. In the original 1964 movie, Audery Hepburn played the role of Eliza Doolittle.

Broadway legend Cameron Mackintosh would produce it along with Duncan Kenworthy, CBS Films and Columbia Pictures. The movie will shoot in real London locations. There has been no confirmation or denial about Keira, but they said they are looking at a major International star.


On the movie, Mackintosh said, "People everywhere will fall in love again with Lerner and Loewe's miraculous songs set in a big, gorgeous film with contemporary stars, a more realistically achieved vision of Edwardian London, and a touch more Pygmalion at the heart of this powerful story of a girl's transformation, the classic story of a flower girl transformed into an instant sensation couldn't be more timely in a contemporary world obsessed with overnight celebrity."
