The Bend It Like Beckham star insists that weight is a big issue within the movie industry and that she is "twice the size" of some of her peers she sees at castings.
Knightley is quoted as saying: "Weight is a big issue in Hollywood because I'm twice the size - height and everything else - of most of the girls who are going in to see the director for a part.
"When you realise that I am, at my size, one of the largest actresses there, you start to think, 'I don't think it'd be healthy for me to stay here much longer.'"
