It is nice to see you.
Thank you very much.
Taking a little break from your filming of the Pirates1 of the Caribbean which is going on forever. So you can be here to talk about your movie which is opening this weekend,
Exactly!
And you're shooting that down in the Bahamas, the next two installments2.
Yeah, yeah.
Did anybody tell you guys it's hurricane season and they've been kind of a big deal this year?
Yes, we found out. We got evacuated3 uh, a couple of weeks ago for Hurricane Wilma, um, so, so we had to leave for about a week, because it did hit the island and we were quite lucky because none of the sets were destroyed. But I am,but I think there was a bit of damage on the other side.
You and Johnny and Orlando had to
We had to leave, yeah.
Make your way out of there?
We did.
But you're having a good time looking forward to film's.
It s good, yeah!
Through completion?
Absolutely I think, you know, they're just bigger and better. I am not giving anything away, (ok) nothing, (All right. Then I won't. . . ) you'll have to wait and see.
Well, then, let s talk about Pride and Prejudice, I am not going to lie to you, Keira, typically, I am not a fan of the period pieces. That, that's just me.
Really?
This is the kind of movie I went into it and I am not ashamed to say, it feels like it just wraps your arms around you, and I understand this is a film that you or a role certainly that you originally resisted taking on?
Yeah, I was terrified, completely terrified. (Why is that? ) I thought I wasn't good enough, um, it was, I'd never done a lead character before. I didn't think I was ready. I thought to take on a character like Elizabeth Bennet is so well loved. I was kind of setting myself up to be shot down. So I begged my agent not to put me up for it and they told me not to be stupid, and I am quite glad that they did it.
You made the right decision, but the character you were familiar with and the story you were familiar with from the time you were a child.
Yeah, I know. I've been obsessed4 with this since I was about 7. I had it on book tape and used to listen all the time. And then the miniseries came out when I was about 10. And then I read the book. And I mean she is my favorite character in English literature. So yeah, I was very lucky.
So life has kind of come around a full circle for you.
It has, yeah.
And as far as making the movie and actually being in those fairy tale situations, I mean the visuals are stunning5, the outfits6, the balls. Was that a dream come true for you? But what about wearing those corsets?
Well , the corsets weren't as bad, because they were awful in Pirates of the Caribbean. Because I was stupid enough to kind of go "No, make it tighter, make it tighter" whereas7 these ones were kind of, you know, they were all right, they were fine. I had a nice time in my corsets this time.
And the stunning locations of those, (yes.)especially coming from the UK, I imagine that has been in a tree .
Oh no, it was amazing , I mean, I am a London girl, so I've never really done the whole countryside in the summer in England before. And it is magical in the extreme. So all the locations of Pride and Prejudice were actually done on location that weren't set, so we didn't build anything. They were all actual houses. So... it was really great.
You kind of set to have to give it all up ? This is really my life...
Yeah, I know, it's awful.
You've had this acting8 gig despite your very young age for a long time. How old were you when you got your first agent?
I was 6 when I got my first agent. But I was 3 when I first asked for one.
Now what is that about?
I don't know. I think...
You said mom, dad, I want an agent. You are 3 years old. (yeah) Most kids are asking for, you know, their buddy9. (Yeah)
Buddy?
I don't think that's what I meant to say ...
Yes, maybe, something like that.
Their baba.
Yeah, well you know, I don't know. I was, I was a precocious10 brat11. Really!
No. I don't believe it for a second.
Yeah, and my mom had one and my dad had one, an I though it was unfair that I didn't have one.
Gotta have an agent.
Gotta have an agent, yeah!
All right. well. It s led you towards where you re now. Here in the United State as you may have noticed when you go through the airports, our tabloids12 are a bit obsessed with celebrities13, you know, they are on the covers, but over there in the UK, it's nuts.
En.
It's out of control that would seem and some have said it is. (yes)Do you rid any of that stuff yourself, (No)do you avoid it? You're out of the mind--let me just not participate in that at all.
I'd probably say 99% of if it's completely false, and I don't mind fiction when you are being honest about fiction, but I minded when you are being dishonest about being fictitious14.
Strangest things you've ever heard about yourself or read about yourself?
Oh, I was recently meant to be going out with somebody that I've never even met. I have no idea who he was and apparently15 we were going through this entire big relationship. I have never met him. Isn't that weird16?
And maybe it's somebody you would have liked that you gotta know them.
Oh maybe, but I don't know. (That's strange.)
Yeah!
Best luck with the movie, I really appreciate you stopping by and chatting with us tonight.
