In a previous interview with The Talks, Knightley discussed how she’s stopped caring about the random backlash as she’s gotten older, focusing on doing what makes her happy. She said, “I learned you can say nothing, you can be perfectly smiling, wearing a perfectly nice dress at the opening of a charity and people can still despise you for it.”

As previously mentioned, these photos came from the New York screening of her new Hulu movie Boston Strangler, where she stars as Loretta McLaughlin, the woman who first broke the story on the Boston Strangler’s. Inspired by the true events, her character tries to track down the killer while fighting the sexist work environment in the 1960s. It was already released on March 17, so don’t walk, run to your TVs!
