The film 'Never Let Me Go' will open the 2010 BFI London Film Festival on October 13, NME reports.  'Never Let Me Go' is adopted from a novel by Kazuo Ishiguro, author of 'The Remains of the Day.'

The film, which is directed by Mark Romanek and features a screenplay by Alex Garland, stars Carey Mulligan, Keira Knightley, and Andrew Garfield.  The film follows the lives of Kathy (Mulligan), Ruth (Knightley), and Tommy (Garfield), who met as students at a mysterious boarding school.  Mulligan, Knightley, and Garfield will likely attend the screening, which will mark the film's first showing in Europe.

The Festival will announce complete programming on September 8.
