Keira's childhood agent

Nov 16, 2006, 13:40 GMT

Keira Knightley demanded an agent when she was just three years old.

The 'Pirates of the Caribbean' actress, who shot to fame playing a tomboy in hit soccer movie 'Bend It Like Beckham', has confessed she always wanted to be in the spotlight, even since before she started school.

She said: "I first started asking for an agent when I was three. I thought it was really unfair that I didn't have one."

Keira, 21, has also revealed that her first acting role didn't require much thespian ability.

She added: "I got my first part when I was seven. I basically just stood in the background. I smiled, I looked cute. I didn't really do very much."

Meanwhile, it has been revealed that Keira will not star in any future 'Pirates of the Caribbean' movies.

The British actress - who just finished filming her part as damsel Elizabeth Swann in the third instalment of the swashbuckling adventure series, 'At World's End' - feels she has grown out of the character.

She said: "I've been playing this girl since I was 17. I'm 21 now and I'm on to very different things. But it's fun to try to invest Elizabeth with some rebellious spirit."
