Keira Knightley says she's no longer interested in acting in nude scenes staged by a male director, expressing her discomfort with shooting intimate narratives that appeal to men.

"I don't want it to be those horrible sex scenes where you're all greased up, and everybody is grunting," the "Pirates of the Caribbean" star said.Jan. 26, 2021, 9:43 PM UTCKeira Knightley said she's no longer interested in acting in nude scenes staged by a male director, expressing her discomfort with shooting intimate narratives that appeal to men.

Knightley said that actors often times have a limited amount of power when filming and called for more representation behind the scenes as well on screen. "If it was about motherhood, literally about how extraordinary that body is, about how suddenly you're looking at this body that you've got to know ... and it's changed in ways that are unfathomable to you before you become a mother — then, yeah, I'd totally be up for exploring that with a woman who would understand that," she said.

That might not be such a bad idea Keira? keiraknightley keira

After she makes a million movies...

Good on her... She can make her own decision...

Jolly for her

She's actually been saying this for 2 years. This is news now?

Honestly we don't care.

But Keira, there are plenty of women who, less-affected than you by a puritanical mindset, feel very positively about 'intimate' (read 'sexual') narrative.

I’d be a lot more impressed if she said not interested in doing any nude scenes.

Who cares about nude scenes anyway!!!

One more controversy added to the list

Good that bitch is ugly

We won't see her anymore . See you in a ifomarcial

What about gay women?

Who cares?

StopGenocideonTigray StopWaronTigray. TigrayCantWait. BidenCanTakeAction

She's done a nude scene?

Good for her!

I love naked people but nude scenes are usually stupid, usually awkward, and always too long. I fast forward through them.

A Capitol police officer was beat to death with a fire extinguisher on January 6 2021.

Stunning & brave. In fact, she should go a step further. Only do raunchy nude scenes directed by women & with other women.

This must be the first step in her coming transition.

Who is she ? But I think no cares !

What was the point? Directors really can’t show intimacy without making the woman get naked? Maybe they really aren’t great directors.

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

There was a time when nudity and gruesome violence was not required to make a great movie, or any movie for that matter.

Good. Bye bye

Who gives a fuck about chicken bones

Don't worry ladies il never stop sending dong pics your welcome

Who?

There will be 1,000+ Actresses ready to take that part after she turns it down. Good for her, and good for them. Life goes on...

Well ok... you were not attractive to me anyway. You have the body of a 10yr old boy.. Please keep you clothes on,

Really?! Ahhh I wake up to this nonsense

They’re largely superfluous and add little or nothing to any serious plot, and if they’re meant to be sensual or erotic, well . . . ?

She will have to learn to act.

They want the future is limited to pass President Biden's top priority diminish.

Thank goodness

It’s called acting, but hey she did do nude scenes for money so basically she’s a ....

Frigid

too many sex & nudity scenes turns productions into voyeurism

How about not doing nude scenes period thats all. They are degenerate. But thats not where she is going with this. She is going with her feminist insanity. Women are supposed to please their husband and he is supposed to please her thats all. Mass insanity.

Good for her!

Wonder what changed LMAO

Just don’t do nude scenes and everyone will respect that. After all we never did see Katherine Hepburn’s bare breasts until the director’s cut of On Golden Pond was released.

I would simply like to see her all greased up from eating a bucket of KFC. Or a sandwich. A fruit salad? Someone feed this poor woman!

Contracts have conditions.

You shouldn't have had to do them

It’s about time 👍

But that’s what sells

Had she ever done a nude scene?

Thanks, Ms. Captain Obvious!!!

sry hun u not 18 n e more We are fine with u keepin the cloths on 😂😂😂😂 even captan Jack sparow don’t want dock in ur port now LoL don’t make me laugh

With all the sex exploitation in the movie industry. They shouldn't have any nude or sex scenes at all. But it just makes the movie spicy and the tickets sell because sex sells. Renowned stars can say this but new stars may not be able to unless everyone says NO! to sex scenes.

That's just homophobic. Women can like women too... Nah just kidding I couldn't care less

I'd pretend to have sex for the kind of money she makes, 100%.

Who cares. This is not news.

Scrawny ass body no thanks! 😂😂

Bow down

A little late for that.

Here’s some news for Keira: nobody cares. There are literally billions of female humans on the planet. They will find someone else to do it.

What about a woman that identifies as a men 👀

fair enough. she should expect to be ruled out of many jobs then 🤷‍♂️

Good. Women aren’t objects

You've shared this like 10 times. I'm unfollowing.

They’ve seen it all already anyway 🤷‍♂️

Shrug, it's her choice.

I didn’t even realize she has done nude scenes up to this point.

Hollywood will retire her wont get any work now

Terrible news. She has incited many an erection over the years.

If her sayin this is a problem for you....YOUR the problem 😂

All together now....'Who CARES!'

'I made my money; time for early retirement!'

TheQuartering

Didn't know this was Breaking News, but okay. OhWell

Oh no!

grow up keira. What is this junior high

Only real nudists should do nude scenes.

Then, no one is going to pay you. This is the only way to rise to stardom in Hollywood

Such a martyr

Ok. Neat. Next story please?

Not to mention Covid-19!

I now identify as a woman director 🙋🏻‍♂️

I hope she knows how much support she has in setting these boundaries. less experienced actors must be grateful to have a role model.

WGAS?

I only get naked for women too.

Movie goers say they're not interested in seeing Keira Knightly nude scenes anyway.

Men are just looking for a nude tiddy. We aren’t asking who the director is.

Bring in the body double & cut her pay

That was literally always allowed.

They come for your face. Then they ask for your body. Then they ask for yourself. Rinse repeat with the youngest hottest prospect. Hollywood’s commodification of the female body continues unabated!!!!

Just drop trou

Don’t know who she is, but I don’t like her. Her argument is based on what? Am I missing the horrible imbalance of Hollywood scenes that only appeal to men?

Those scenes are usually done with men?

What if that appeal to lesbians, is a YES?

It’s not like she’s at the top of the list but okay you do you

That's sexist

Good for you.

I'm positive I'm not the only one that doesn't remotely care.

Wasnt checking for it anyways

She's getting kind of old, so no big whoop.

Good for her

Who gave this woman permission to voice opinion

Somebody find a female director stat!

Um ....OK?
