Just have a think back to what you were doing when you were the age that Keira Knightly starred in the franchise.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n

\n
Keira Knightley has surprised her fans by revealing how young she was when she starred in the franchise that would skyrocket her career.<\/p>\n

If you remember 2003, things were quite different back then.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n

<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Social media was nothing like it is today, and there was no Netflix or streaming at home. It really was like living in the dark ages.<\/p>\n

But the early 2000s did have great movies, and one of the biggest global franchises was just beginning. I\u2019m talking about Pirates of the Caribbean.<\/p>\n

The first three movies in the series are a real blast, featuring funny performances, iconic scenes, and an amazing soundtrack.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n

<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
\n
A big part of the franchise\u2019s success is due to one of its main characters, Elizabeth Swann, played by British actress Keira Knightley.<\/p>\n

Recently, some fans were shocked to learn how young Knightley was when she took on the role.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n

One Twitter user wrote: \u201cThis must be a LIE,\u201d while another wrote: \u201cWtf, I never knew.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cCan you believe Keira Knightley was only 17 when Pirates of the Caribbean the Curse of the Black Pearl was filmed,\u201d someone else said as they shared images of the star in the role.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n

<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
\n
And a third wrote: \u201cWhen I watched the movie I thought she was older than me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe fact Keira Knightley gave us these two iconic characters in the same year WHILE SHE WAS ONLY 17,\u201d commented another referencing her being in Love Actually that same year.<\/p>\n

Keira Knightley has spoken out about the issues she had with fame.<\/span>\u00a0Roy Rochlin\/Getty Images for 20th Century Studios<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

With the success of the first film and its follow-up sequels came fame and celebrity status, which Knightley has commented on, saying it hasn\u2019t always been a positive experience for her.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n

<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Knightley told Variety in a 2016 interview: “I found it pretty horrific. I\u2019m not an extrovert, so I found that level of scrutiny and that level of fame really hard.”<\/p>\n

“It was an age where you are becoming, you haven\u2019t become, and you need to make mistakes. It\u2019s a very precarious age, particularly for women.”<\/p>\n<\/article>\n

<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
\n
“You\u2019re in some ways still a child. It was traumatic, but it set up the rest of my career.”<\/p>\n

Despite the challenges she faced then and in the years that followed, the actress has said she wouldn\u2019t change a thing.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n

<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Speaking to Variety in 2018 she said: “I\u2019m unbelievably lucky now, and my career is in a place where I really enjoy it, and I have a level of fame that\u2019s much less intense.”<\/p>\n

“I can deal with it now, and that\u2019s great. But at the time, it was not so great, and took many years of therapy to figure it out.”<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
