One of Knightley’s most noteworthy roles is as the young pirate Alice Cooper in the movie’s Alice in Wonderland and Pirates of the Caribbean.

While appearing in the TV show, Knightley also appeared in the video game Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. Both Black Rain and On Stranger Tides were well received by audiences, bringing Knightley recognition among movie fans, and she began working on a remake of that movie before continuing on to other films.
