Matt Damon is all set to star alongside Keira Knightley for a new period drama Tender is the Night.

The movie is an adaptation of F Scott Fitzgerald’s classic of the same name.

The gorgeous and talented Matt Damon will reportedly play the role of a talented young doctor called Dick Diver, living on the French Riviera in the 1920s with his wife.

A director is yet to be attached to the project, which will be produced by 20th Century Fox, Contactmusic reported.

The movie, which so far has only a script written by David Nicchols, tells the tale of Dick as he goes through life, weighing up different issues in his mind such as his wife’s wealth.

The film does not have a release date as yet. The female lead has been offered to Keira Knightley who is said to be keen to star with the American star.

Keira Knightley was spotted (and thankfully photographed!) in London’s West End Tuesday night, February 23.

She looked fresh-faced and gorgeous as always in a killer coat and ridiculously beautiful scarf.

Sadly, Johnny Depp recently confirmed what we pretty much already knew: Keira won’t be returning for the next Pirates move.

Johnny Depp told press that neither Keira Knightley nor Orlando Bloom will be on board for the highly anticipated POTC 4. “We’re coming at it from a different angle at this point, Rob Marshall and [a] totally new take, it’s a new story. I don’t think we’d ever throw too much Jack Sparrow in there. There will be a little bit of everybody.”

I’m really excited about Rupert Friend’s new movie, The Young Victoria. Emily Blunt stars in the beautiful film – which was produced by Sarah Ferguson.

About The Young Victoria

In The Young Victoria, Emily Blunt (The Devil Wears Prada) delivers an incredibly compelling performance as Queen Victoria in the turbulent first years of her reign. Rupert Friend (Pride & Prejudice) portrays Prince Albert, the suitor who wins her heart and becomes her partner in one of history’s greatest romances. This love story, set amongst all the intrigue of the court, also features Paul Bettany (Iron Man, The Da Vinci Code), Miranda Richardson (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire), Jim Broadbent (The Damned United, The Chronicles of Narnia), Thomas Kretschmann (Valkyrie), and Mark Strong (Sherlock Holmes, Tristan & Isolde).

Keira Knightley’s co-star in The Misanthrope, Damian Lewis, is positive that Keira Knightley will do a terrific job when she makes her debut on the West End stage.

The Band Of Brothers star will be appearing alongside the British actress in the West End production of Moliere’s comedy The Misanthrope, which opens in December.

Damian recently told the press: “She’s got quite a successful acting dad and playwright mum, so she can handle herself – Keira is fabulous, she’s an absolute sweetheart – she’s looking forward to it as well so we’re going to have fun,” he said. He added: “I’m very excited about doing The Misanthrope – massively. We did the photo call for it the other day, and it made it very real, very exciting.”

He joked that he wouldn’t mind the paparazzi attention. “If I can get in and out the stage door every night without fighting, I’d feel hurt – I’d be insulted,” he quipped.

The Misanthrope will be at the Comedy Theatre from December 17.
