Lead actress was horrible. Who cast her?

She had no emotions at all. Zero. Like a mannequin. It was impossible to connect with her. Every CGI monkey had more emotions then her. Who cast Freya Allan. Is she nepo baby or slept with someone? How could they hire her in such big movie in lead role having no charisma and acting talent at all?

Wiki says she is 22. So had to be like 20-21 while shooting. Honestly I thought she was 35 or something.

She had to audition and they all looked at her non-acting and thought she was better then all other contenders. It was probably like 50 of them.

Well she's kind of a freak stuck in a hell scenario so whatever. I agree she's basically model casting. Very pretty.

Pretty privilege in full force.

And yeah she looks much older than she actually is. Won't age well.

Not these days.

Too many body positive and/or ugly people.

Another symptom of DEI.

Would have helped if she got naked.
