Keira Knightley is reportedly giving her model boyfriend acting lessons to land a dream movie role.

The beautiful actress is said to be doing everything possible to help lover Jamie Dornan secure a starring part in a British romantic comedy.

'The Pirates of the Caribbean' star has even signed up her handsome beau to her own agent in a bid to boost his success.

A source close to the couple revealed: "Jamie has had a few acting tips from Keira and she is also teaching him to fence.

"As a model, he has always had bags of confidence but acting's very different.

"There is one particular movie that he and Keira are holding out for."

Meanwhile, the 19-year-old beauty has revealed she loves running around half-naked, covered in tattoos, for her latest film 'Domino'.

But the brunette actress says she wouldn't undergo the painful body art in real life.

She confessed: "I like the tattoos but I'm glad to wipe them off. They look sexy but I wouldn't want them for real."
