HOLLYWOOD, CA (RUSHPRNEWS) 06/01/08 – Actress Jessica Biel has signed on to play the lead in a film version of playwright Noel Coward’s “Easy Virtue.”  Biel will star opposite Colin Firth and Kristin Scott Thomas as a young, recently divorced American who visits the South of France only to end up hastily re-marrying a rich Englishman (Ben Barnes of “Stardust”).

Receiving a great deal of attention for her looks, Biel was previously named Esquire magazine’s “Sexiest Woman Alive” in 2005. Reports currently link her to music superstar Justin Timberlake.
“Virtue” startED filming on location in London this January, with Australian director Stephan Elliot (“The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert”) at the helm.
