Golden Globe winner Sally Hawkins (Happy-Go-Lucky) has joined Fox Searchlight’s adaptation of Kazuo Ishiguro’s best-selling novel Never Let Me Go. She will play a teacher at the seemingly idyllic English boarding school attended by Ruth (Keira Knightley), Kathy, (Carey Mulligan), and Tommy (Andrew Garfield). The film, directed by Mark Romanek (One Hour Photo) from a screenplay by Alex Garland (28 Days Later) begins filming in the U.K. today.

I LOVE Sally Hawkins after seeing her in Happy Go Lucky!! Such as sweet little British movie that was. I was wondering what she would do next, sounds like a good choice.
Sally and Kiera were both snubbed at last Oscar show (The Duchess and Happy Go Lucky), but let’s hope they can rebound together in this upcoming movie?
Can’t wait!
This is an AMAZING book! I am excited to read it is being made into a movie, but it will be hard to top the book.
Love Keira. She is so hot: http://www.actressscene.com/search/label/Keira%20Knightley
I love Keira Knightley and Sally Hawkins, they are both such amazing actresses! And you’re right stiffy, they were both snubbed at the Oscars for their amazing performances last year.
I am excited about Never Let Me Go and the book was fantastic, a really good read. I think the movie will be wonderful.
