JLaw drops out of Elizabeth Holmes movie Bad Blood after watching Amanda Seyfried in The Dropout

Nov 03, 2022 01:35


Jennifer Lawrence will no longer star as Elizabeth Holmes in Adam McKay's BAD BLOOD, she told me. She came to that conclusion after watching Amanda Seyfried play Holmes in "The Dropout": "I thought she was terrific. I was like, 'Yeah, we don't need to redo that.' She did it."

Talk about a compliment. Obvs she's rich and didn't need to do it for survival, but i appreciate the candor

I honestly don't know why they're still pushing forward with another adaptation of the same story when the dropout and amanda's performance did it so well.

Was she really that great? This makes the 3045th review where they said Amanda Seyfried killed it at that role. I might just watch it, if she is that good.

she's so good in it, highly recommend watching just for her performance alone.

This is the Hollywood equivalent of me at karaoke having to go next after someone who sang their ass off and tore the house down :(

This reminds me of the time I went to a pub on karaoke night and we were all singing dance/rock songs, that had us all up dancing and having a great time. Then some dude gets up and brings down the mood by singing Iris. Lovely song. Not great for jumping up and down to.

People who can sing need to leave karaoke to those of us who can't. Let me screech out this Janis Joplin song in peace damn it!
