We wouldn’t want to be a casting director, but we admit, we sure appreciate them. They have one of the hardest jobs in Hollywood because their job can make or break a movie. We can all deny it, but a lot of times we will decide if we will watch a movie based on who is in it versus what it’s about.
Take, for instance, Darren Aronofsky‘s upcoming film, Caught Stealing. Do I know much about it? Nope. I didn’t know anything about it when I decided I was going to watch it. I just knew that Austin Butler and Zoe Kravitz were going to be in the movie. That sold me.
And now, with the addition of Bad Bunny. Yes, take all my money.
Now, what’s it about? Well, we had to look this up because well, we haven’t read it. Won’t read it either, but definitely will watch this adaptation. After all Austin Butler and Zoë Kravitz in a movie together, like we said, you have our attention. So though it’s unknown who Kravitz or Bad Bunny would play, we do know that the movie is about a washed-up, burnt-out, ex-baseball player who gets caught up in the criminal underworld of New York City in the 1990’s.
We’re seated. We’re paying attention. Give us all the information. We will be watching.
