Keira Knightley: Motherhood Puts Everything in Perspective
- 9 years ago
Keira Knightley feels having a child has changed the way she approaches her career - for the better.
That's one of the reasons the actress felt comfortable making her Broadway debut in the title role of "Therese Raquin."
Knightley and her husband became the parents of a little girl named Edie earlier this year.
So when she returned to work, it was in a play she had passed on doing on numerous occasions.
"I've been offered it a bunch of times and I've always gone, 'Well, this is scary and this is really difficult," Knightley said.
"I still find it terrifying, but why not give it a go," Knightley said.
The actress attributes motherhood as a being a catalyst for finding the courage to take on the play.
