Keira Knightley Takes a Break
She is going to step away from Hollywood for a bit.
Keira Knightley, who is best known in the United States for starring in the three Pirates of the Caribbean mega-hits (alongside Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom), is planning on taking a break from Hollywood to catch up on her reading.
Knightley, who also appeared in Pride and Prejudice and the grossly underrated Atonement, has set up a block of free time over the next couple months to just relax and recharge her batteries from the hectic acting schedule she has endured since she was 16.
"It's been a strange years as far as films go. With the writers' strike in Hollywood, a lot of financing has fallen through," Knightley said while promoting her latest film. "I'm going to sit in my flat, read books and cook."
