Keanu Reeves is one of Hollywood’s most popular stars: the actor from matrix Because of his proverbial friendliness and his particularly deep attitude to life, he is almost a legend on the set, and there are many celebrities who would give a finger to be allowed to work with him. Hardly anyone would turn down a film with him… almost in fact.
A while back, a very famous Italian actress revealed that she’d rather say no to a Keanu Reeves movie, but not because of the star John Wick. let’s talk about Maria Grazia CucinottaInterpreter who first gained fame through his Postman with Massimo Troisi and so it became known to the rest of the world thanks to 007e The world is Not Enough.
He has acted in numerous international films including I tore my wife to pieces from Woody Allen with Sharon stone and The Rite with Anthony Hopkins, Toby Jones and Ciaran Hinds. However, during an interview with Corriere della Sera, she focused on one particular film she hadn’t done and revealed the anecdote behind it.
Looking back on her career, she recounted when she turned down a role in it The Devil’s Advocatethe 1997 film directed by Taylor Hackford with Keanu Reeves and a wonderful Al Pacino as a seductive satan. He had passed the audition but then decided to turn it down. “I was tempted – revealed Cucinotta – I say, Keanu Reeves, shut up when you see him.” Too bad that «In the script there was nudity throughout and me I would have felt uncomfortable with those huge breasts and I would have ruined everything.’
The actress then added: “I’ve always had the complex, I was already like that at 13, too bad I couldn’t wait to have it reduced with surgery, then I gave up, maybe I wouldn’t have had the same success, but it never felt pretty, too bulky to I hunched my shoulders to hide it. then it’s hard to be taken seriously, no one looks you in the eye. “Ah, you’re smart too,” is a sentence I’ve often heard.”
His “no” didn’t seem to bother the production, which went on to play Keanu Reeves’ wife Charlize Theron. Not the worst choice…
