British actress
Keira Knightley reportedly has shed off her clothes in the name of art. According to reports, the Cecilia Tallis of "
Atonement" has been secretly visiting London's Halcyon Gallery to be painted in the nude by the highly-regarded artist Mitch Griffiths.
"It's considered a great honor to be painted by Mitch. He is a highly respected nude painter and is painting as number of subjects for a new exhibition next year," an insider revealed. "He is delighted Keira decided to take part."
Keira Knightley herself will be seen portraying Lillian Palmer in "
London Boulevard", a movie about a South London criminal who tries to give up the gangster life by becoming a handyman for a reclusive young actress. She will star opposite
Colin Farrell, Ray Winstone, and Stephen Graham.
Recently, the "
Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" actress was also reported to land a role in 2011 big screen project "
My Fair Lady". In late October, the rumor suggested Keira has beaten
Scarlett Johansson to play the major character in the movie. However, her agent said the report was "not true".
