HOLLYWOOD actress Keira Knightley has been spotted in the Highlands filming scenes for a new Netflix movie.
The Pirates of the Caribbean and Love Actually star reportedly flew into Inverness Airport by a private plane on Thursday evening and was spotted on Glen Affric estate in Inverness-shire on Friday.
Knightley is in the country for her latest film, The Woman in Cabin 10, which is being shot on the Highland estate.
According to the Press and Journal, a glass marquee has been built at the side of Affric Lodge on the estate where a scene of a gala dinner or an awards ceremony was filmed on Friday.

Knightley was spotted in the marquee wearing a backless dress while co-star Hannah Waddingham was also in attendance.
The newspaper reported the set was also surrounded by what appeared to be four security guards, which turned out to be actors for the scene.
There were also several extras at the scene who were dressed in evening wear.
Filming is expected to continue over the coming days.
The Highland estate where the filming is taking place is owned by the Matthews family which includes Pippa Middleton’s husband James Matthews and his brother, Made In Chelsea star Spencer Matthews, who married model Vogue Williams at Glen Affric.
The film is an adaptation of Ruth Ware’s best-selling 2016 novel.
It is a psychological thriller and Ware’s second stand-alone crime novel after her debut bestseller, In a Dark, Dark Wood.
The story follows a journalist on a luxury cruise for a travel assignment who witnesses a passenger tossed overboard late one night.

Despite not being believed by anyone onboard, she continues to look for answers, putting her own life in danger.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
