Keira Knightley will play Coco Chanel in a movie directed by Karl Lagerfeld

To commemorate the 100th anniversary of the opening of the first Chanel boutique, Karl Lagerfeld is directing a short film to debut alongside the label's cruise collection in Singapore this May, WWDreports. And the designer cast a slew of Chanel campaign and catwalk alums to star in it.
Keira Knightley, queen of period pieces and the face of Coco Chanel perfume, plays Gabrielle Chanel herself, and Stella Tennant, Tallulah Harlech, and Caroline De Maigret all have roles, as does Karl Lagerfeld entourage member Brad Kroenig and his son, Hudson.
