Keira Knightley in talks for Barbra Streisand’s movie
Keira Knightley is in talks to star in a new adaptation of Catherine The Great directed by Barbra Streisand.
THR reports that Knightley is in the midst of talks to star in the biopic about the Russian empress who came to power after the convenient assassination of her estranged husband Peter III, and went on to revitalise Russia over her 34-year reign.
Streisand is the only woman to ever win a Golden Globe for Best Director and will be looking to further her directing career with this new film which is awaiting a release date.
