Keira Knightley has recently explained how motherhood helped her prepare for her new spy role.
Speaking to Radio Times, the actress, who is currently promoting Netflix thriller Black Doves, said, “In life it’s those double faces that you have.”
“Then suddenly you’re at work and you’ve got your work face on and then you’ve got your kid on the phone and you’re, ‘Oh baby, are you OK?’” remarked the 39-year-old.
Keira noted, “So, it’s that thing I think we all know and that we all do, but ramped up to ten, or 11 or 12.”
“And that’s what I liked. It made me giggle,” continued the Atonement actress.
Keira further said, “We all do it. For me, I’m on a film set and then it’s, ‘Oh, you passed your spelling test – I love you so much!’”
“Whereas this is, ‘Darling, I love you so much and they’re just about to kill me. Kiss darling, goodbye,’” stated the Pride And Prejudice actress.
Earlier in an interview with The Times, Keira recalled public shaming due to Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.
“t’s a funny thing when you have something that was making and breaking you at the same time,” she said.
Keira told the outlet, “They were the most successful films I’ll ever be a part of, and they were the reason that I was taken down publicly.”
“So, they’re a very confused place in my head,” she added.
