Keira Knightley may soon return to London stage

London, (ANI): Keira Knightley may soon return to the London stage to work with Christopher Hampton. Praised for her stage presence, when she appeared in The Misanthrope in the West End earlier this year, Knightley may be about to make a return to the capital's boards.

Christopher Hampton, who wrote the script for the film Atonement in which the actress starred, is working on a new play for the National and has the young actress in his sights. "I think Keira is magnificent on stage," the Telegraph quoted him as saying.

"I would love to have her involved," he added.
