Still don't understand how she is not more popular nor getting roles


Seriously look at her:

She's perfect and has the ideal look for an actress. She also has a good following on IG with over 20 million followers. She is quite a good actress too so what gives?

Someone like Hailee Steinfeld getting all this hype while Katherine who is miles better in every way gets nothing. What a joke Hollywood is.

reply

won't do the casting couch

reply

I don't think it really has to do with that. Other actresses like Florence Pugh don't engage in such things and get plenty of work.

reply

Florence is a little too pudgy for casting couch gags.

lol

she has good days

reply

The nasal septum is confirmation that she can take pain and do with a little less oxygen. That's quite endearing.

reply

Florence Pugh and Hailee Steinfeld are really good actresses, though.
Katherine Langford is just the looks. Mediocre actress, at best.

Dime a dozen in civilized countries.

reply

Dime a dozen? She is not the type of beauty you just come across regularly.

reply

Maybe not in the USA but here in Europe she's good looking but nothing special. A bit chubby, too and those legs are not very shapely.

What has Lottie Moss got to do with it ?

reply

That was the wrong link

reply

Her younger sister Josephine is prettier.

reply

Well it's still not saying much because that woman has ugly legs as well

She has very mundane and forgettable face. And there is nothing special about her. That why. You cant peak her out in a crowd.

She has 36 millions on Insta now and it just shows how irrelevant those numbers for real popularity and career are.

reply

She just hasn't found a role that will cement her as a leading lady. Besides Love Simon and Knives Out (which she was good in but wasn't the stand out from either film) which are the only other things I know her for, none of her other leading roles haven't become 13 Reasons Why breakout hits. She hasn't made a movie since 2020 and has focused all her time on TV.

She probably should have done a few of those cheesy romantic films her younger sister knocks out on regular basis. While doing the odd more challenging roles on TV. She's only 27, I wouldn't write her off yet but she needs to find another hit fast.

reply

27 is another reason why her career went nowhere. She aged out of that "17-22 years old school girl" she used to play. Now other, younger, pretty faces replaced her. Thats how it happens all the time.

She is not talented enough to be leading lady and bring viewers to go into adult roles. Hollywood is very competitive. There are thousands of one-hit actors that can get one famous role and then vanish. Maybe sometimes it need to have desire to just knock at every door and go to every audition. In hope to get another good role. Maybe she is not trying hard enough.

Maybe she is one of those actors who just sits and waits for their agent to call and announce they are being invited to audition for big role. Only few can get on top.

There are lots of young charismatic actresses on Yellowjackets. All of them will probably vanish after show will end.

reply

Won’t get naked onscreen.

Beautiful actresses are a dime a dozen.

They need to be willing to go a step further for their roles to stand out.

Even today with the people who twisted metoo into a power play to eliminate any female nudity and sensuality in entertainment.

Almost every Oscar-winning and nominated Best Actress and Supporting Actress since 1970 has been nude onscreen, some many times.

Producers are still looking for that.

reply

The simplest answer tends to be the correct one.

She doesn't want to be a star and is selecting the jobs which appeal to her.

Come one look at what she has done you telling me worldwide she has that limited amount of offers I don't believe it.
