    Keeley Hazell stars in Venus and The Sun, released 10th March 2011

    Keeley Hazell stars in a modern comedy re-telling of the Venus and the Adonis myth.
    The film follows Keeley who thinks she's solved all her problems by taking up an unexpectedly high-brow hobby: translating Latin. The language has given her magical powers, enabling her to ward-off the frenzied attention of her adoring fans, and the British Library offers an ideal refuge.

    But when she meets Adam, the one Sun reader in the country she hadn't bargained for, Keeley is given a lesson in not judging books by their covers. Her journey of discovery will reveal just how far she's come to rely on the advantages of fame.

    Keeley is joined by a stellar British cast including comedy actor and esteemed writer Will Smith (THE THICK OF IT) and Ukweli Roach, star of hit film STREETDANCE 3D.
