NEW YORK, June 26 (UPI) -- British comedian and Tony Award-winning actor James Corden says he shot his scenes in the New York-set, music-themed film, Begin Again, in between performances of his Broadway show, One Man, Two Guvnors.
In writer-director John Carney's feel-good movie, Corden plays Steve, a warm-hearted street musician whose best friend Gretta, a singer-songwriter played by Keira Knightley, is unceremoniously dumped by her newly successful, recording-artist beau Dave, played by Adam Levine. With the help of Dan, a down-on-his-luck, record-label executive played by Mark Ruffalo, and a rag-tag bunch of struggling musicians, Gretta and Steve record an album in public locations throughout the city.
