Blind Item #5
This A+ list mostly movie actress thought her television experience would be a one off thing. Forced into making it a two off thing, she has not been pleased. To make things worse, two co-stars have decided to turn their own unpleasant set experiences into a PR campaign against the A+ list actress which is really out of place.

I was thinking Streep. Are they making a season 3?
ReplyDeleteAnyone heard any rumours about how she is on set? They all look totally loved up on the red carpet-the cast.
ReplyDeletePossibly Reese as well, sounds like there has been tension on the set.
ReplyDeleteKidman wanted the biggest house and is quiet and awkward. And had Skarsgard strip naked to masturbate to. There was a blind about it
ReplyDeleteFor a quiet and awkward woman, that is quite extreme to get a bloke naked and masturbate, I assume, in front of him! Imagine if a man did the same....well I 'spose we have HW for that answer!
DeleteCertainly is awkward and he's gay.
DeleteWhich blind?
DeleteWell, if there’s a blind about it, it must be true!
DeleteEh, it's a Lifetime movie with a more expensive cast, of course there's going to be drama.
ReplyDeleteIt’s Reese. Reports are that she is very unfriendly to her costars and is acting like the boss. Out of place because the show is about women empowering each other, but reality is opposite.
ReplyDeleteI don't see how someone could be forced to make season 2
ReplyDeleteS2 is gonna suck. The show ended in a natural place and should have stayed with the book. Extending it is going to be so embarrassing - the Real Housewives of Monterey!
ReplyDeleteSelling that cliche-ridden, mama-nazi schlock as empowering for actresses was absurd.
ReplyDeleteTwo costars are Shailene Woodley and Zoe Kravitz. A+ gotta be Reese, standing as an American citizen during DUI checks

ReplyDeleteMen get to indulge in their cliches regularly without criticism. Actors are empowered (professionally and monetarily) through roles in Saving Private Ryan, Sons of Anarchy, Californication, South Park, Archer...with any female characters being satellites to the main thrust, if they are present at all. I love me some male dominated shows, but let's make no mistake - they are dealing in acceptable cliches 95% of the time.
If women are doing the same, on one show, who cares. While BLL is going to be a trainwreck in S2, the connection to the audience in S1 was real. Shit, even my husband liked it. The soundtrack was fantastic, the cinematography, too. The characters were distinct and realistic. If it plays on the fantasies of women and how women approach narrative and characters, so what? Isn't that was film and TV is, fundamentally, anyway?

ReplyDeleteKidman A-?
A+ must be Streep
ReplyDeleteKidman got the most accolades and awards for her role in BLL, so I find it odd that she would be so resistant to doing a season 2. Reese seems more likely, ready to move on to other projects so her performance will not get overshadowed by the work of Kidman and now Streep.
ReplyDeleteThis is Nicole Kidman. Reese has no problem doing TV, she's already signed up to do another series with Jennifer Aniston
ReplyDeleteI don't think this is Reese. Didn't she help create this show? She's an Executive Producer. This getting picked up for another season is more money in her pocket and she gets creative freedom as a creator to help make the show something she wants it to be. I could see this being Kidman, who probably signed up as a one off thinking it would be fun/awards cred, but wound up having to come back to film again.
ReplyDeleteI liked Big Little Lies, it was very well done. Really not sure what Streep is bringing to the table, I thought the original actresses were superb in their roles.
ReplyDelete@Plot. Thank you .
ReplyDeleteVery nicely put.
Kidman is doing another TV show...Top Of The Lake.
ReplyDeleteYVW P Rei
ReplyDeleteThank you.
'Women empowering women' is a really nice idea. But, it never truly happens in American culture. American women are fiercely competitive. Perfect example: J Mulroney's self aggrandizing behavior and copying the "Pippa look", at Meghan Markle's wedding. Supposedly there to 'support her friend'. Uh huh
ReplyDelete@mercyprosperity - she was Meghan's wedding planner. And perhaps her husband's douchebag attitude has rubbed off on her over the years. That can happen.
