Keira Knightley is a STAR when she’s on screen. When is her comeback?

The way she is absolutely entrancing in Anna Karenina, Pride & Prejudice, Atonement, the Pirates movies, etc. Does she deserve to have a massive moment again? :jonny5: 
 

the way she acts with her face alone!

I feel like her moment has passed tbh. But she will always be iconic because of Pirates and Atonement was a serve too (although kii at Saoirse snatching the Oscar nom).

Atonement will always be special to me :heart2:

What happened to her? Did she have a kid or something?

Her and Angela Basset have this tight lip movement when they act mad that irritates me. 
 

But she’s okay.

She picks flop projects by no1curr directors. But she also just hasn't been in the top 10 of any casting list rn, that's all.

She took a break for a while when she was on top of Forbes Top Actress Earning, maybe online behind Cameron Diaz. Then she came back with strings of flops and played the girlfriend/wife of leading male character. She snatched an Oscar nom back in 2014 something but I think if she picks right movie in the future, she will probably win an Oscar as her acting performance is always praised :) 

 

IMO, her acting skill is way above that of Emma Stone. The way Amy Adams in Arrival was not even nominated and she won an Oscar for Lalaland just…

I feel like she’s a bit comparable to Jessica Chastain in the sense that both constantly book lead roles even if they’re not getting the best or the biggest projects. They’re simply leading lady stars. 
 

And we saw Jessica managed to come back and snatch an Oscar, so perhaps Keira can as well. I really hope so. It would take the right role, and she’d have to campaign her ass off so I guess it depends on if she really wants it. 

 

Something else that factors into this is that many actresses have taken to producing their own star vehicles; Chastain spent like a decade trying to get Tammy Faye made. I don’t think Keira’s done anything like that, which may put her at a bit of a disadvantage.

They campaigned Keira in Lead Actress for that film despite her only having half an hour of screentime; she still managed to get the Globe and BAFTA nods because she is a leading. lady. STAR.

I used to adore her back in the day but looking at her filmography now I realize that her movies are kinda boring :gaycat6:

she's a mid 00s fad not a star

Saoirse Ronan replaced her as the token period drama girl :gaycat5:

Posted

A fashion girl a leading lady but ha taste in movies is questionable

 

 

i think she's talented enough for a comeback tho.

Hmmm same she seems to have a weird fetish for boring historical movies. Which is a shame cause in the Pirates movies she oozed star quality. But at least she chose to flop! :clap3:
