      I've heard that it was originally going to be gay but the producers or whatever said no and the male love interest (the coach) was added/played up fairly late in the process of making it.
      So the two girls are supposed to be "just good friends", but maybe still played their characters as gay/a couple cause that had been the original plan?
      They go off to America together and Joe is supposed to be going too/still there as a love interest, but I feel like if you remove his tacked on subplot and presence, this movie can be the lesbian classic it was supposed to be--thanks for doing this!

    Actually, according to the interview given by Gurinder Chadha, it was supposed to be a same-sex story between those two female leads. But they altered the script as they feared they will receive a lot of backlash from India at that time. If it is made now, Indians will be more accepting of this.

      It's worse because one of the primary misunderstandings is that they're lesbians because one of them has short hair. And also because of the love triangle. They get into trouble twice over "confusion" regarding them being together in some way.

      also, to be honest, Jules' mom reacting like that about the mere INSINUATION of her daughter being a lesbian probably was kinda damaging to my lil lesbian heart tho... Like, that whole interaction with the mom stuck more to me than the actual neat gay scenes.. which is tragic.

      @@thatsdisco For years now, Keira Knightley has been a sex symbol for men and women so she's probably been many many people's sexual awakening 🤣 But to my knowledge, Keira is in fact a straight woman and she's married with kid 😂 But I love how she said she'd like to be in a gay sequel for Bend it like Beckham 😖 it wouldn't be the first time she has been in a lesbian film I remember there's a movie called the Duchess where she has a lesbian scene in bed with an actress and she was in another lesbian movie called Colette (that I still have yet to watch) but I came across this video of Keira Knightley ua-cam.com/video/6P77DBlKHE0/v-deo.html at 2:20 of the video Keira explains that when she was in school she had a girl best friend who was gay and that they had actually kissed eachother in their prom photo and the school was homophobic and banned their photo. 😲 So it's funny to think that even as a straight women Keira Knightley has experienced homophobia in real life before 🤣She also seems to be very accepting of LGBT community if she is open to playing gay characters and she literally had a gay best friend when she was in school. 😅 So that explains why she was encouraging a gay sequel for Bend it like Beckham 🤣 but I agree with you when I was young I watched her movies a lot and I've always had a huge girl crush on Keira Knightley she's so beautiful 😍😍😍 and she's a good actress 😝 I also love the fact that she's an Aries Queen like me 🤭💕 but yeah I'd love for her to be in a gay Bend it like Beckham movie Keira could totally play Jules again it's been years but she still looks exactly the same 🤣🤣🤣

      Knightley is a MTF transgender, like the greater percentage of those in the industry, though only a small percentage are chosen to be exposed as such. She is not. Not yet anyhow, but all things in their appointed time. There are MANY REASONS these celebrities have their gender changed as infant’s, when they can’t object if they’d wish to, & whose parents are either celebrities, high ranking gvt/ political figures, & Nobility. The 1 that stands out the mot is the TRILLIONS of dollars spent by their adoring fans each year on as many plastic/cosmetic surgeries & procedures as the actors they idolize, mansions, high fashion, designer purses/luggage sets, expensive fragrances, travel, purebred pets, & everything they see celebrities & influencers have & do, in order to maintain a similar lifestyle-No matter the amount of work, nor level of sacrifice required to make it possible! And so much more! The most notoriously known-famous & wealthy as a result, w/out having a shred of talent among them are the Kardashians! I’ve absolutely not a bit of respect for that entire family combined, including their half & step siblings, spouses, & in laws. But they get the job done off the sweat off the backs of child laborers in third world countries, w/ their most INFERIOR product lines & pushing of the agendas instructed by the powers that be & their master.

      It still reads as really gay, I think cause those rewrites came late and because the actresses knew that had been the original plan?
