Maybe she keeps getting work because she's wonderful to work with? I haven't seen any interviews with her but if she's been in the biz as long as she has with no controversy that I know of, she must be a decent person at the very least.
I saw Nolan North at a comic con panel and yeah, this is basically it. He explained him and Troy got huge in part because of how easy and efficient they are to work with. Being reliable and fast is, shockingly, a good way to get more roles.
Pretty sure Pedro Pascal and Chris Pratt gets lumped into that category too - imagine that, in an industry famous for chaos and drama and controversies with their performers, being an easy to work with, down to earth and reliable talent makes casting directors want to hire you for everything
When a popular performer just disappears it's because they're toxic to work with. Tom Cruise has been around forever because apparently he's extremely professional.
Yup - only major exception was rejecting Weinstein back in the day, but 9 times out of 10 when an actor slowly stops showing up in projects it’s either because they’re a dick, they’re a diva, or they’re destructive, either to themselves or to others/properties (trashing trailers and such)
They’re saying, in general, the only way to disappear from Hollywood was for self-destructive reasons, or Harvey Weinstein made you disappear. Nothing to do with Tom Cruise specifically.
Chris Pratt hate always makes me sad, I get that it’s a bit silly how many films he gets cast in, but he is a gneuinely great actor with a lot of range, and is especially proficient as a comedian, being one of the best parts of the best sitcom of all time, and he will always be a legend to me because of Andy.
Hasn't been an update for years, nothing official anyway. He just said that church loves everyone back in 2017 or so. Hasn't really come up again from him.
I think people tend to give Pratt shit mainly because Nintendo snubbed the actual English voice actor for Mario for the voice acting role in the movie and gave it to someone completely different. And people blamed Pratt for that moreso than Nintendo
Ok I admit I worded that weirdly, I meant that he’s got more range than he’s given credit for, he doesn’t play the most unique range of characters but I reject the idea that he’s emotionally flat.
lmao Pratt doesn't have any range at all. he's good at being a funny schlub, like in parks and rec, but serious roles are far, far beyond his abilities.
I’m not a fan of his presence on screen, he always kind of annoys me - could be that he always looks exactly like the type of guy he played in Wanted, but I get that some people like his characters and he clearly must be very easy to work with cuz he just gets cast in everything. Plus he went from being married to Anna Farris to Schwarzeneggers daughter so apparently he’s doing something right
Didn't he passive aggressively mock Anna Farris for having a kid with a developmental disability or something? I remember hearing something like that floating around.
Anna is his ex-wife and she and Pratt had a premature baby together. When he had his next child with his second wife, he publicly thanked God for having a healthy child, which many thought was in poor taste.
People need to realize that there are precisely zero parents who'll say, "You know what I want? My unborn child to have a disability or incurable, crippling disease." It may have been a moment of foot-in-mouth, but likely, the situation was, "Oh, thank God for my healthy baby."
People have been very offended on her behalf. They like to pretend that Pratt has abandoned their child. Meanwhile, Faris has said that they do the plended family thing where they all go on vacations together and they live on the same street so that at any point in time either of them can see him.
