Keira Knightley has a handful of exciting film projects on the horizon this year, and Begin Again is one in particular that I am looking forward to.

Begin Again will see Knightley show off her musical side, as she plays a young singer/songwriter in the new film.

The movie sees the Oscar nominated actress team up with filmmaker John Carney, as he returns to the director's chair for the first time since The Rafters.

Knightley features in this fantastic new clip with Adam Levine:

A terrific cast has been assembled for Begin Again, as Knightley and Levine are joined by Hailee Steinfeld, Mark Ruffalo, Catherine Keener, and James Corden.

Gretta (Keira Knightley) and her long-time boyfriend Dave (Adam Levine) are college sweethearts and songwriting partners who decamp for New York when he lands a deal with a major label.

But the trappings of his new-found fame soon tempt Dave to stray, and a reeling, lovelorn Gretta is left on her own.

Her world takes a turn for the better when Dan (Mark Ruffalo), a disgraced record-label exec, stumbles upon her performing on an East Village stage and is immediately captivated by her raw talent.

From this chance encounter emerges an enchanting portrait of a mutually transformative collaboration, set to the soundtrack of a summer in New York City.

If blockbusters are not really your thing this summer, then the very charming Begin Again could well be the movie for you.

Begin Again is released 11th July.
