Martin Freeman (The Office) is set to star in a film opposite Jude Law in Anthony Minghella's film
Breaking and Entering, according to Ananova.
He will play a partner in a London architecture firm. Martin said: "The film is set in contemporary London and I play Jude Law's business partner. It's a straight role for me. I have played them before but I'm very much associated with comedy and that's something I'm trying to rectify. It's nice to have a balance between comedy and serious stuff."
The 33-year-old found fame as Tim in TV series The Office.
Breaking and Entering is due to be released next year.
