The actress, who plays Elizabeth Swann in the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy along with Depp and Bloom, insists that women end up being jealous of her because she got the part, that includes kissing her two co-stars.

"Women look at me as if they want to kill me. And then when they don't kill me they say through gritted teeth, 'Lucky you'," the Mirror quoted her, as saying.

However, the actress doesn’t think too much about all those negative vibes, for the three stars have turned out to be good friends.

"I am lucky to have worked with two such nice guys. We've become very good friends. The funny thing about Pirates Of The Caribbean, a film with lots of special effects, is that I count Johnny Depp as the biggest special effect of all," she added.

Knightley also has a piece of advice for future co-stars of Johnny Depp.

"The first thing I had to learn when acting with Johnny was not to look at him. Ignore him at all costs," she says.

"He wouldn't do the full Jack Sparrow if the camera was on you. But as soon as it turned around you couldn't do any off-camera lines because you'd be laughing too much.

"There will be a lot of out-takes of everybody laughing in the middle of a scene. I remember the crew with tears running down their faces," she added.

The final movie in the trilogy – Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End – hits theatres worldwide on May 25.
