Keira Knightley of The Intimation Game, sorry, The Imitation Game, is Set to Star in Post-War Drama ‘The Aftermath’
Keira Knightley has starred in a number of World War II films including 2007’s Atonement, co-starring James McAvoy, and more recently in 2014’s The Imitation Game, opposite Benedict Cumberbatch.
Clearly she’s not intimidated by daunting historical storylines, because here she is again, signing on for a new war (or if we’re being completely accurate, post-war) drama, The Aftermath.
The film will hit theaters on April 26 next year, reports The Hollywood Reporter, and is set in 1946 Germany, following the end of World War II. The story revolves around a young woman named Rachael Morgan (Knightley), the wife of a British colonel.
I see the world through my eyes. It’s sometimes a strange world.
