Blind Item #1

This A list director who everyone knows. Well, you probably do. How about A list action movie director. Anyway, he is also a bit of a tool. Well, a lot of a tool. Can you be a lot of a tool? In most of his movies he always has at least one foreign actress who is usually very pleasant to look at. while most of the time these roles are very small and would normally be handled by a casting agent, our director personally reads with each of these actresses to make sure they are "right" for the part. He does actually make them read and if they offer a suggestion he will tell them no. His favorite thing to tell them is to read it monotone so people will understand exactly what they are saying on screen. One actress asked about the acting part of it though and the director said, "Look. You are there to look good and hopefully be wearing almost nothing. I don't care if you can act or not. No one is going to be listening to you anyway." The actress in question, read in the monotone, but because she dared to question the director, there was no way she was ever going to get the part. The good news is she didn't have to sleep with him.
