Zoe Kravitz talks about not being able to audition for 'The Dark Knight Rises' for being "urban"

[bttrsondaughter]

Zoë Kravitz was rejected from auditioning for "The Dark Knight Rises" because she was too "urban" for the role: “I don’t know if it came directly from Chris Nolan. I think it was probably a casting director of some kind, or a casting director’s assistant." https://t.co/QHFEx4GuRs

She definitely got the last laugh. Especially since she ended up not only getting a lead role but being a better Catwoman than Anne imo.

Plus TDKR wasn’t that good.

fr anne was the best part of that movie… it was just a bad movie lmao

christopher nolan have shit history hiring poc actor/actress … beside tennet, my guess the studio probably forced him to hire a lead black actor. his new film, all whites casts again. dont blame on the casting director/assistant … they only follow directions from the top.

just saw this on r/movies and the comments were horrific jesus.
Nolan whitewashed Ra's and Talia too, his track record w/ diverse cast & female characters is 🚮
She was a great Selina, loved her in the movie

r/movies is where good sense goes to die.

any area where white men feel the courage to say their opinions with their whole chest and feel "heard" by the echo chamber are areas I typically avoid, so I'm not surprised r/movies was particularly horrific about it.

Any reddit thread or Youtube comment that involves the Green Knight is absolutely awful.

While I loved the movie, I fully get it won't be everyone's cup of tea...but the main complaint is Dev being an Indian...the really funny ones are the ones that complain about everything but that, then tack it on at the end of theie complaints. You can tell what they're doing because they all have the same complaints...and its almost verbatim.

[solsty]
