The daughter of actor Will Knightley and playwright 'Sharman MacDonald' . After
requesting an agent at the age of three, her parents allowed her to work on
productions in her summer holidays. Her first role was at the age of 9, in
'Moira Armstrong's' Village Affair, A (1994). However, Knightley's first high
profile role came in 1999, as Sabe, Decoy Queen to 'Natalie Portman's' Queen
Amidala in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999). Since then she has
completed an impressive array of films including Hole, The (2001), but is
probably best known for her role of tomboy footballer Jules Paxton in Gurinder
Chadha's Bend It Like Beckham (2002).
