Keira Knightley promises 'theatrical' Anna (INDEPENDENT IE)



Keira Knightley has revealed that Joe Wright's adaptation of Anna Karenina is set to be "a very different take" on the Russian classic.

The actress plays the title role in the film, which is set for release later this year.

Speaking in Los Angeles at the world premiere of her latest film, Seeking A Friend For The End Of The World, the actress admitted Anna Karenina was an ambitious project to tackle.

"It's a very different take on it, it's very theatrical, I'm very excited about it."
