Keira Knightley has revealed that she felt sorry for co-star Jude Law because he had to wear such an awful wig.

The pair play husband and wife in the big screen adaptation of Anna Karenina where Law was made to look older for the role.

Speaking to Harper's Bazaar the actress said: "No wonder he kept that hat on. [The make-up and wig] were the worst.

"Poor f**ker. I'd get to the end of the day, take my make-up and wig off, and I'd look s**t.

"He'd take the make-up and wig off and look f**king brilliant. And everyone would say, 'Oh yeah! Good-looking man underneath!"

The movie is the third collaboration between Knightley and director Joe Wright after their success with Pride and Prejudice and Atonement.

Knightley takes on the title role in the movie while Aaron Johnson, Kelly Macdonald and Matthew Macfadyen are also on the cast list.

Anna Karenina is released 7th September.
