LONDON:

Keira Knightley is terrified of starring in a comedy. The Atonement actress has revealed she would be uncomfortable making a fool of herself on the big screen and insists she is too ‘dark’ to be funny. Keira said, “I am a big fan of Blades of Glory. I don’t normally watch films like that and it was great. But getting involved in a Will Ferrell comedy would terrify me.

“I guess I am into darker things at the moment. I think I am quite frightened of comedy. It’s never something that I’ve watched a lot of. I think people can always quote comic films and I’ve never been able to do that. I can quote you the tragic ones, but not the comic ones,” she added.
