QUOTE Variety reports that Columbia Pictures is developing a My Fair Lady remake, with Keira Knightley in talks to star as Eliza Doolittle, the simple Cockney flower girl who is transformed into a lady.
The film is being produced by Duncan Kenworthy (Love Actually, Notting Hill) and London legit maven Cameron Mackintosh.
CBS Films, which owns the film rights to the Lerner & Loewe musical, will co-produce and Sony will distribute.

Well, everyone with charm is dead I guess. Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly... Only the two come to my mind. Just my personal preference.

Actually - to me - the original version is only worth watching because of Audrey Hepburn. Nothing so unique about it. If they could make the story better, perhaps the remake might worth watching - I think personally. But, that Keira... I don't even like her in Atonement. Could she really act? Again, my personal bias. BTW, did Marlyn Monroe actually has one extra toe?

yeah, leave Hepburn alone. but actually the first role of Eliza Doolittle was played by Julie Andrews, it was for the live performance (broadway) version.
AFAIK the movie version of the show, Audrey Hepburn was cast as Julie Andrews was filming Sound of Music.
