Keira
Knightley
will
appear
partially
nude
for
a
racy
scene
in
new
movie
'Atonement'.
The
'Pride
and
Prejudice'
star
will
disrobe
before
plunging
into
a
deep
fountain
and
emerging
soaking
wet
in
a
clingy
slip.
The
film's
director
Joe
Wright
is
quoted
by
Britain's
Daily
Express
newspaper:
"I
wanted
to
cast
Keira
as
a
woman,
a
sexual
character.
She's
only
ever
played
girls
before.
"There
is
a
key
scene
with
James
McAvoy
where
she
dives
into
a
deep
fountain
to
retrieve
a
broken
vase.
Keira
emerges
from
the
water
and
stands
on
the
fountain's
edge.
It
was
her
idea
to
stand
there
for
quite
so
long
-
but
I
quite
liked
it." Wright
also
claims
the
scene
had
to
be
edited
to
protect
the
22-year-old
actress'
modesty.
He
said:
"There
was
another
shot
of
her
from
behind
but
we
left
it
out
as
it
seemed
a
bit
too
rude."
Keira
has
flashed
her
flesh
in
a
number
of
previous
films,
including
'The
Jacket',
'Domino' and
'The
Hole'
-
in
which
she
exposed
her
breasts.
She
recently
admitted
she
loves
stripping
naked
in
her
movies
and
finds
sex
scenes
"liberating".
Keira
is
set
to
shoot
an
on
screen
threesome
with
Sienna
Miller
and
Matthew
Rhys
in
new
Dylan
Thomas
biopic
'The
Edge
of
Love'.
