Cara Delevingne: Modelling made me hate myself
Yes, it’s true that the production of a movie can range anywhere from six months to six years, or more if the project requires it. However, what’s never spoken about is the amount of hours each cast member is required to stay on set. “I think the cool thing about Pokemon is that it’s very organic to the friendship that I made with Justice and Austin, who played Ben and Radar”.
But despite the precociousness, the British star insists she’s full of self-doubt.
Cara pops her head, crown and all, into a suite where two American colleagues are housed, before vanishing into another suite bearing the legend “CD UK”.
The model-turned-actress might be young, but she’s not lacking in confidence.
Her eyebrows – yes, those eyebrows – crinkle into a frown.
“She’s fearless and I’m pretty goddam fearless”.
In the pipeline are appearances in such upcoming blockbusters as Pan and Suicide Squad.
The makers of Paper Towns would dearly love to emulate that success, whisking its stars around the world on an extensive global press tour in an attempt to get the word out.
Cara revealed to Global’s Kevin Hughes that she identified with her character – but Margo’s pranks definitely outdo Cara’s! There is a moment where Quentin says, “I love you Margo”, and Margo says, “Love me?”
“Nobody understands Margo better than Cara”, he tells us. “It was nice picking things out of my own life and my own self to play the role”, she explains. When she left the interview, the anchors began publicly shaming her, saying, “You make five million dollars for six weeks of work, you can pretend to talk to Good Day Sacramento with some oomph“. “I can’t really talk about it because I’ll get my hands chopped off, but it’s a lot”. In fact, being a sought-after face just made Delevingne feel worse about herself.
That is, until one night, she knocks on his window and asks him to help her with her latest mission. “Hopefully. If they like me…”
Green, for his part, believes Delevingne is perfectly cast as his mercurial heroine. “You don’t even know me, ‘” Green told the newspaper.
Nobody would ever question the unprofessional nature of the anchors, but everyone’s quick to throw a stone at the young actress, calling her ungrateful and unenthusiastic.
A “paper town”, by the way, is a bogus hamlet placed on maps by cartographers to catch out plagiarists.
Her impish features and statement brows have earned her countless high-profile cover shoots and campaigns, but modelling was never going to be enough; behind the scenes, Delevingne was slowly developing her acting portfolio.
“I feel, though, that every time I start a new film it’s like starting a new life. I’m not about brushing things under the carpet”.
