Lol she is a charisma black hole to me so this won’t be missed

[theylezharold]

I see why she was rejected from acting school multiple times

[isthisdesire]

Lmaooooo multiple times

[ohwutevernvm]

Screaming!

[wanderlost]

Grease 2 'Tell me more'.mp3. Rejected MULTIPLE times? Haaaa!!!!!

[theylezharold]

She was rejected 5 times from Swedish acting school haha!

[wanderlost]

FIVE???? Why did she keep applying after the second rejection? She's a glutton for punishment. And why didn't she get better after the fourth audition? Omigod. That's so embarrassing.

Same like nothing against her but I truly do not understand how she was so lauded as an actress. The VFX did all the heaving lifting for Ex Machina imo!

Thank you, about time it's said

Which is soooo strange because she is tremendously charming in interviews, but all that charisma bizarrely completely evades her in films

I mean Tom Cruise sounds like a sociopath in interviews, but boy can he glue you to the screen.

same thing with emilia clarke

Watching Irma Vep right now, she is very boring... I know she's supposed to portray someone aloof and awkward like KStew in this show, but even then she's not nearly interesting enough, she's just too... smooth and without depth in any way.

She must be great to work with and professional (+ great connections?), because otherwise I don't get how she keeps getting roles when there must be hundreds of vastly more charismatic European actresses around.

I just looked at her photo and realized that I've been going off on Rege-Jean for being dull as a brick, but she's exactly the same and gets opportunities, so why shouldn't he?

Anyway, she and her abusive husband need to go back to being out of spotlight like they were a few years ago.

She really is so bland.
