Keira Knightley’s name is synonymous with flowing gowns and period dramas, but the English beauty has gone for a completely new, stripped back (quite literally) look for her latest photoshoot.
The 29-year-old was shot by Patrick Demarchelier, but in a twist for Interview magazine, it was Keira that was firing the questions at the renowned photographer.
In her interview with Demarchelier, Keira reveals that she’ll be spending her summer months poring over books – picking her next movie project.
“What am I doing? I just bought a load of books that I’ll read over the summer and hopefully choose another film based on that. I don’t know if that’ll happen, but it’s quite a good way of working,” she said.
The Pirates of the Caribbean star revealed that Demarchelier once gave her solid advice while on a fashion shoot.
“You said something really interesting to me on the shoot: ‘You have to relax your face, because that’s what good movie acting is, a relaxed face. It’s the same thing as having pictures taken’,” she revealed.
Keira, who married Klaxons star James Righton in 2013, will soon be promoting her new movie, The Imitation Game in which she stars alongside Benedict Cumberbatch.
The film, which is out later this year, is based on the real life story of legendary cryptanalyst Alan Turing, played by Benedict, and is billed as a thriller as it portrays the nail-biting race against time by Turing and a team of code-breakers at Britain’s top-secret Government Code and Cypher School at Bletchley Park, during World War II.
