Keep your eyes out for actress Keira Knightley. The actress is in Seattle shooting a new film with local director Lynn Shelton.

The new film, “Laggies,” began filming last week with Knightley in the starring role. Director Lynn Shelton posted photos of some of the locations on her twitter account.

IMDB says the film is about a woman who lies to her fiance about going on a retreat and hangs out with friends instead.

The Puget Sound Business Journal says there were reports of lookie-loos slowing traffic in the Wallingford area as passersby tried to get a glimpse of the shoot.

The movie is on day eight of shooting. Keep up with what’s happening on the set by checking out Director Lynn Shelton’s twitter account.
