Anna Kendrick says "f*ck you" to the director who set her up to fail and mocked her on set.

“A director once in a room full of 100 extras or something was like, ‘Hey, on this next one just try something. Just make something up. Just improv something.' And I did it and then the… pic.twitter.com/OY1zyVf7aW

"Anna Kendrick says "f*ck you" to the director who set her up to fail and mocked her on set."

He suggested she improvises something, she did, then he said that didn't work. This just sounds like any brainstorming/trying things in a creative environment, not mobbing or mockery, even in her own words.

Yeah idgi

[waxandstrings]

i mean, she then goes on to say the improv ended up not only in the movie, but in the trailer, so it obviously did work for them and he was just trying for a power play?

These processes should mostly be worked out/rehearsed before they are filmed, ideally. I did theater and I know exactly what she's talking about. Directors who love to suggest something and expect you to get it immediately perfect on the first try and if you don't, they make a smarmy comment to shame you as if you're the reason it sucked and not because their idea was shit and last-minute.

Welp the commments here sure are exactly what I expected

Congrats!!!!!!

I'm surprised actually bc IIRC the last post about her was unexpectedly positive so I thought ONTD was warming up to her. How naive of me lol

[hunnichild]

I'm right there with you lol. When I read the part about telling her agent she didn't want any comedy scripts after getting out of that abusive relationship because she couldn't do the performance and dishonesty anymore, everything made so much more sense.

[sisipie]

I see some people are making up fan fiction about what she must be like to justify their dislike of her.

[ponyboy]

lol this really shows you don't know anything about the alacala case or understand why people might be a little perturbed a real event was made into something for easy #girlboss media with totally made up events but okay if you think that's fanfiction.

[sisipie]

Wasn't talking about you. I am very familiar with the Alcala case, and have not seen Woman of the Hour, so I'm not even defending that. Just Anna herself, as a person.

I watched the movie and they are being so weird about it. It's not girlboss, it's a girl realising LA is the worst and meeting him being her last straw.
The victims are also very lively people that you feel for when he harms them so, I don't know what tf they are talking about tbh.

But yeah I agree with you ppl are doing the most here!

loving this energy!!! call men out more 2025!

[dreamdate]

What the actual fuck is up with ONTD lately.

[therearewords]

If it continues like this, we don't need dox threats to implode.

[einodia]

I think it's because we're one week before a presidential election that may well have reverberations throughout the globe. everyone's stressed out and looking to unload it.

ontd is on the other side of the horseshoe" when it comes to misogyny. ontd has hated women its entire existence, but now ppl like to claim their feminists while doing it lol.
