London: Oscar winning actor Colin Firth is planning to team up again with actor Kristin Scott Thomas for Harold Pinter`s `Betrayal`.

This is Firth`s first stage performance in over a decade. "Colin has wanted to go on stage for a long while. He`ll do `Betrayal` after he completes filming `Gambit` with Cameron Diaz and Alan Rickman," a daily quoted a source as saying. Firth received the best actor Oscar for his role as stuttering monarch King George VI in `The King`s Speech`. And now the 50-year-old has decided to challenge himself in a stage role, reports the Mail, Sunday. Scott Thomas may also appear in `Betrayal`. IANS
