Bad idea.
BAD!
Keira Knightley is in talks to play Eliza Doolittle in the re-make of stage to film classic My Fair Lady.
The studio, Columbia, declined to comment on casting of the project, being produced by Duncan Kenworthy (Love Actually, Notting Hill..fab flicks!) and theater legend Cameron Mackintosh.
According to reports, while it’s being called an update, the film will use the original score and retain its 1912 setting.
Where possible, Kenworthy and Mackintosh intend to shoot the film on location in the original London settings of Covent Garden, Drury Lane, Tottenham Court Road, Wimpole Street and the Ascot racecourse.
Keira is no Audrey Hepburn!!!!!!!
We heart London and musicals.
They can’t butcher My Fair Lady!!!!!!
Who would be a good Eliza???
Emmy Rossum???
