Keira Knightley speaks to Sally James on playing a secret agent in her latest spy thriller, Black Doves
Keira Knightley's intelligent choice of characters is nothing new. The 39-year-old star bagged her first film role at the age of nine. It was in 2002 that Knightley won the London Film Critics' Circle Award for Best Newcomer for her role in Bend It Like Beckham. It was the following year that her breakout role as Elizabeth Swann in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl launched her to international fame. Her character in her latest Netflix series, Black Doves, is layered with lies, pain, and joy.
It has been 20 years since you last did a television series. What was it about this one that interested you?
I had been looking to do something like this for quite some time and it just came along. I had seen Girl/Haji and loved it. So, when the chance to work with Joe Barton came up, I was super excited. I read the script for the pilot for Black Doves and just thought it was brilliant.
