Its party time again for Keira Knightley…

keira-knightley-party-time.jpgSome actors and actresses keep trying harder and harder to make news and remain in business while stars like Keira Knightley just do one ‘Pirates Of The Caribbean’ series film a year and end up making much more money and winning many more accolades than anybody else…

‘Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest’ has once again made it to the top of another list – the world’s highest grossing film for 2006!!! The producers of the flick have their pockets full after the movie raked in as much as $ 1.4 Billion… it ousted all the other big releases, including the previously reigning ‘Da Vinci Code,’ which managed to pool in $966 million…

With the third part of the series, ‘Pirates Of The Caribbean: At World’s End’ already scheduled for this summer, lets see if Keira sticks to her decision of quitting the pirates brigade…

some GREAT news for Keira Knightley!!!

Hey people… I have good news, GREAT news…. And not so good news….

keira-knightly-in-black.jpg1. The good news is that the Pirates Of The Caribbean series is going beyond the status of a trilogy. The fourth episode of the series has started and is in the scripting stage now… so be prepared for a much longer stand with the pirates…

2. The GREAT (read GRRRRRREEEEEAAAATTTTT) news is that Keira Knightley’s character Elizabeth Swann has been highly appreciated not just by the audiences and critics, but also the producers of the film… the appreciation might be shown as much more screen time for the heavenly beauty in the third, fourth and many more Pirates movies J

3. The not so great news is that the leading man, Orlando Bloom might have to face the axe… the producers are hell bent on cost cutting for the venture, so Will Turner’s (the character played by Orlando) will be killed in the beginning of the movie itself….

While we rejoice for Keira baby, a thought that comes to mind is that how can a leading and main character turn ‘not necessary’ all of a sudden??? What say….
