Following her grueling experience on the set of Disney's 'Pirates of the Caribbean', Keira Knightley has decided against returning to tentpole movie franchise.

AceShowbiz - Keira Knightley, known for her roles in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" franchise, has no desire to sign up for another multi-movie commitment. The actress, who is married to James Righton and has two daughters, Edie and Delilah, has become more selective about her projects since becoming a mother.

"I couldn't go job to job [abroad] now," Knightley explained. "I wouldn't be in any way fair to them, and I wouldn't want to. I've chosen to have children, I want to bring them up, so I've had to take a major step back."

Knightley also shed light on her daughters' lack of interest in her acting career. "She's completely uninterested in seeing me in any way at all on television, which is completely fair enough," she said of her older daughter, Edie. "I think that's very healthy."

The actress' decision to prioritize her family aligns with her previous statements about her daughters' dyslexia diagnosis. Knightley and Righton praised their daughter's remarkable memory, but noted that her learning style requires a more hands-on approach.

Knightley's rise to fame came with her role in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, which ran from 2003 to 2007. The actress recalled her experiences filming the movies, saying that the long hours and lack of control over her schedule were ultimately not worth the sacrifice.

"The hours are insane. It's years of your life, you have no control over where you're filming, how long you're filming, what you're filming," Knightley said.

Knightley's decision to prioritize her family and her own well-being over high-profile projects is a testament to her commitment to her loved ones and her own happiness.
