One of Stephen King’s books will never be printed again because of the controversy it generated. One of the most successful authors of all time, Stephen King has earned the title of the King of Horror thanks to novels such as It, Pet Sematary, Carrie and The Shining. As a writer who explores plenty of disturbing horror themes, King’s work has attracted controversy on a number of occasions.

Keira Knightley says she had to go through “many years of therapy” after starring in the first Pirates Of The Caribbean film. The actor was just 17 years old when she appeared as Elizabeth Swann alongside Johnny Depp in The Curse of the Black Pearl, which became the fourth-highest grossing film that year after making over $654 million worldwide following its release in 2003. At the time, the film was expected to be a flop, with the pirate genre failing to deliver a successful film in years.
