keira knightley started out in bend it like beckham and i do not think anyone noticed her. pirates made her very popular and she has left the movie. is it because she has gained whatever she wanted from the movies? i certainly think she should have stayed with the pirates franchise. what do you think?

Yes i had the same though, she should have been with pirates franchise. But she has some attitude problem i believe.

it's up to her. bend it like beckam was actually quite successful, and she came out of it well thought of. I remember how it was at the time, because I liked the film, and it was popular. and aside from pirates, she's had some good films and some flops. no one can force an actor to take a job they don't have to. if she doesn't want to, that's fine

no doubt the movie was successful. but she did not have a big role in it and did not become popular until pirates happened for her.

There have been so many rumours about this movie, that I had not heard this one. Is it a fact though, is Keira Knightley not going to be involved in the 4th movie? The thing is I read somewhere that the studios were recasting her and Orlando Bloom's role with younger actors, to keep the focus on Johnny Depp. Now until they start filming, and if they have a completed script nothing is certain. Also Keira Knightley has the right to refuse a role, unless contractually obligated and that is a totally different issue, whatever the reason, be it personal or professional, it is up to her. No one should be forced to do something they don't want to. It will be a pity though as she has this tomboy charm that makes it believable that she could be both at home in a the governors mansion all prim and proper and also be at home with a cutlass in one hand fighting in a pirate ship.

no it is not a rumor. keira knightley is no longer working in pirates as she has moved on. even the guy with one plastic eye has left the franchise.nothing to do with focus actually few of the actors have left on their own.

Maybe it was just her personal choice to leave. Sometimes, some just feel like changing jobs. Maybe she was tired of doing Pirates, and is looking for something new. It happens to everyone.
