Keira Knightley, who is to star opposite Colin in forthcoming film ‘London Boulevard', has recently been consoling Colin following his split from novelist Emma Forrest.Former hellraiser Colin, 32, is said to be distraught after he was dumped by Emma following a year-long relationship and has turned to Keira, who he had been in touch with regarding their roles.
A source said: "Keira thought it would be helpful to speak to Colin about their parts but she has been trying to support him through girlfriend troubles. She says it has helped her understand the man she is going to play opposite and is delighted to have connected with him so well".
Keira, 23, is going through a tough time herself because she has hardly seen her boyfriend, actor Rupert Friend.
The source added: "Keira can't wait to start shooting as she has put in so much preparation for the part. She has felt lonely without much time with Rupert over the past few months as he has been busy promoting his new film ‘Young Victoria' and, like Colin, can't wait to absorb herself in the project".
‘London Boulevard', which loosely follows the plot of 1950 film ‘Sunset Boulevard', will see Colin playing an ex-convict who falls in love with Keira's reclusive actress character. Shooting on the film starts next month.
