Carey Mulligan to replace Keira Knightley in My Fair Lady remake

Carey Mulligan has reportedly been offered the role of Eliza Doolittle in the remake of My Fair Lady.

 

The actress, who recently received an Academy Award nomination for her role in An Education, is up for the part after Keira Knightley druned down the part.


According to the Daily Mail: "The actress has not been formally offered the part yet - and won't be until Columbia Pictures agrees the film's budget.

 

"Carey and the My Fair Lady filmmakers will keep talking until a deal can be struck."

    there is no need for this film to be remade.
    the original is a classic

    I remember when I saw Carey Mulligan in Doctor Who, and thinking that she was gonna be a star.  But I never thought she would be this big, this quick.  Great actress.

    She's a great actress, actually better than Kiera Knightly. Enjoyed An Education, but a quick jump to a main role
