Does CE think she's a good fit for Catwoman?


https://www.justjared.com/2022/02/14/zoe-kravitz-makes-rare-comments-about-her-divorce-from-karl-glusman-says-she-was-a-mess-in-her-20s/?=morehere

Zoe Kravitz is getting candid.

The 33-year-old actress appears on the cover of Elles latest issue, where she discussed playing Catwoman, growing up with a famous family and her split from Karl Glusman.

Zoe, who is the daughter of Lisa Bonet and Lenny Kravitz, shared, There was a little bit of embarrassment around what came with my last name. People would always assume that if I got a job, it was because of that. That was hard. But I was incredibly privileged. I got an agent easily. Im not going to pretend like it didnt help me get into the room.

But I had to remember that I work hard, and as a child I was putting on performances in my grandparents house. And it had nothing to do with who my family was. It was because I loved it, she added.

The High Fidelity star said that as time went on, she wanted to prove not only to the world, but to myself, that I deserve to take up space in the industry.

Im proud of where I come from. Now its nice to be in a space where I feel like when people ask me about my parents, Im not like, Lets not talk about that. Im like, Theyre awesome. Im grateful to be their child. And I also am my own human being, she continued.

Zoe also opened up about playing Catwoman opposite Robert Pattinsons Batman, calling the fandom surround the film wild.

Obviously, you want to look good in a catsuit, but I wanted it to be realistic that Im able to do anything in this film. So I had to be strong, she said. I got stronger than Ive ever been. That felt good, to see what I was capable of. I felt confidentand I could kick some a.

Later in the interview, she talked about her divorce from Karl, which was finalized in August 2021.

Karls an incredible human being. It really is less about him and more about me learning how to ask myself questions about who I am and still learning who I am, and that being okay. Thats the journey Im on right now, she explained.

Zoe also said of her 20s, I never want to go back. I was a mess. I wasnt making choices based on what felt good to me. Now were in an era of, What do I actually want? The good spot right now is taking a minute to say, Maybe I should do this differently and seeing what that feels like.

She added that she doesnt feel pressured to have kids any time soon. I still want to go on adventures, have fun nights, and see the sunrise. Its been an interesting journey of remembering that theres no finish line that I have to get to by a certain time, she told the outlet. Playful, mischievous behaviour is something I always hope to have, even when Im 70 years old. The point of being alive is to experience life and play with it. Theres still so much fun to be had, she said.

At least she's honest about it. There have been celebrities who come from famous backgrounds and who have pretended that family name had no bearing on their success.

She should have done the right thing and not taken the role. It would have been better for someone that didnt have nearly as much privilege as her to get it

Basically yeah.

It's crazy how many people can't comprehend that privilege doesn't contradict hard work and success.

I get there's an extra layer to it when there's famous parents involved but she seems to have wrapped her head around it quite well.

Yes. IIRC he is Francis Ford Coppola's nephew.

EDIT: He took the name "Cage" because Luke Cage was his favorite comic book character.
