Keira Knightley had a pretty awkward moment after Luke Thompsonhad to remind her they were once in a movie together — which she had totally forgotten about.
The two actors shared the hilarious moment during a new TV interview as they promote their West End play together.
Keira Knightley Totally Forgot She Was in a Movie With Luke Thompson
Appearing on British talk show This Morning, Knightley and Thompson were asked whether they’d worked together before, to which the Pirates of the Caribbean star confidently replied, “No.”
But the Bridgertonactor politely said in the background, “Well…”
He then cheekily added, “Remember Misbehaviour?”
Knightley immediately realized her mistake and said, “Oh no, you were in Misbehaviour! We have worked with each other!”
Why Keira Knightley Didn’t Remember Luke Thompson
With that said, Knightley does have a couple of good excuses for not remembering the Netflix heartthrob.
“But that wasn’t fair, we didn’t really,” she said. “And I was early days pregnant so I don’t remember anything about that film. And he suddenly was like, ‘You know we’ve worked together before?’ I was like, ‘Really?'”
Thompson explained, “We were in the same film, on different days.”
Knightley added, “Different days. And, again, I was under three months pregnant so basically just vomiting everywhere. I don’t remember anyone on that film at all.”
The Love Actually actress shares children Edie, 11, and Delilah, 7, with husband James Righton.
