As in the previous two outings, At World’s End promises plenty of action and though tiny-framed Keira says the latest film was one of her most physically demanding to moment, she plus insisted on doing most of her own stunt work.

“This film is definitely a little bit darker and there are some really great fight scenes,” she says gleefully. “I didn’t precisely insist on the fight scenes but I did ask for them for my character in the first movie. I kept saying, ‘I want a sword’ and they never gave me one, so in that one they gave me two, which is great!” she laughs.

Pity that despite her deft swordplay, the hardy star has come under fierce attack from critics who say her slender physique encourages anorexia in young girls.

Keira Knightley likes to smash glasses when she is angry.

The ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ star says having a glass-throwing tantrum calms her down when she is upset.

Keira believes she inherited her raging temper from her father, actor Will Knightley.

She told Hello! magazine: “I am like my father. I have ‘the Knightley streak’. He gets angry at inanimate objects. I find it therapeutic to throw glasses even whether you have to spend the rest of the night on your hands and knees collecting pieces of glass.

“Whether you are frustrated, sad or drunk it works. It takes the anger away.”

Keira, 22, additionally admits she is “a bit of a drama queen” and feels constantly insecure.

The actress - who recently confessed to be envious of The Gossip singer Beth Ditto’s full figure - said:

“Look up insecurity in the dictionary, ‘For insecurity, see Keira Knightley.’ Constant insecurities. But I’m 22 and my body is alright at the moment. It’s not going to get much better. I know I might as well produce the most of it.”

Keira is currently starring as Elizabeth Swann in ‘Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End’. The adventure movie has been a worldwide box office smash, taking $401 million since its global opening last Wednesday

Keira Knightley is “relieved” to be taking on a new role in latest movie Atonement, considering it’s more of a challenge than her part in the Pirates of the Caribbean series.

The Pride and Prejudice actress stars alongside James McAvoy as star-crossed lovers in the movie, which is based on the Ian McEwan novel.

And the English beauty is grateful for the new role, considering it has more depth than that of her Pirates character, Elizabeth Swann.

She tells British film magazine Empire, “that is such a relief. Not that I don’t enjoy all that Pirates stuff, but it’s not about my character–it’s about Johnny (Depp)’s character. It’s not focusing on emotional turmoil. It’s been great just to get my brain engaged.”
