Keira Knightley bio at NetflixThis statuesque British beauty, born to actor Will Knightley and playwright Sharman Macdonald in Middlesex, England, on March 26, 1985, flocked early on to the family tradition of acting.
Knightley attained instant cult status among Stars Wars fanatics with a small but important role in Star Wars: Episode 1: The Phantom Menace, playing Sabe -- the "Decoy Queen" to Natalie Portman's Queen Amidala. She greatly increased her recognition factor playing a tomboy soccer player in the worldwide hit Bend It Like Beckham (2002).

Pirates producer Jerry Bruckheimer then cast Knightley in another costume action epic, as Queen Guinevere in the revisionist history of King Arthur (2004).
