  1. > “I remember a director once in a room full of 100 extras or something being like, ‘Hey, on this next one just try something. Just make something up. Just improv something,’” Kenrick recalled. “And I did it and then the director called cut and came over and, once again in front of 100 extras, was like, ‘Oof, let’s go back to the script!’”

    > “It really felt like a very specific power move thing to embarrass me, to gain dominance. It was very icky,” Kendrick added of the situation. “And then the thing that I improved ended up in the trailer. So fuck you!”

  2. The title makes it seems like she said it to their face but not actually what happened.

  4. forgot the name of the director but it was on table 19

  6. Why is Anna in the feed so much, did she release a book or something?

  7. I AM SO TIRED OF CELEBRITIES COMPLAINING. You don’t get to complain in public. You just don’t. If you want to complain, you can become a teacher or a social worker.

  8. Tough life huh? Made millions acting. The director is probably a nerd on the spectrum that made an inappropriate comment.

  9. Jesus people, it is not Jeffrey Blitz.

    She’s still close enough with him , that he was one of the first people she asked for advice when she was considering if she should put herself forward to direct.
