Gemma Arterton isn't like Keira Knightley.

The 'Quantum of Solace' star hates being constantly compared to other young British actresses because she has her own identity.

She said: "It's always funny. Especially with girls, people always want to put them in little brackets, which they belong in. I don't think I belong in the same bracket as Keira Knightley. I'm completely different, and from a very different background, and we even have different accents. It's just because I'm in 'Prince of Persia' by Jerry Bruckheimer and it's a period film... it's an obvious thing to say. I don't mind. I'm confident in my own ability to not mind being compared to people."

The British beauty recently landed the lead role of Catherine 'Cathy' Earnshaw in 'Wuthering Heights' after a string of Hollywood actresses pulled out.

She will star alongside 'Gossip Girl' actor Ed Westwick, who will portray Heathcliff.
