AVY KAUFMAN (legendary Hollywood casting director) on the DEADLINE panel for The Crowded Room –
"Actors needed to keep up with Tom, you know? They all had a responsability to act opposite Tom and do a great job. Every scene has to go back to the respect for Akiva and how important the story is for the world, for every human being. For whatever you go through, we all have our up's and down's and this is a very important script. So all the actors had to keep up with Tom. Whether it be Amanda [Seyfried] or Lior [Raz]. A lot of the friends in the beginning are first time actors, because they were all simple, they were enjoying life. But then you get the heaviness of it, and then you need stronger actors to present. You need to follow the rhythm to who can bring out those words and keep up with Tom, and express these situations - as heavy as they were."

i often see people commenting about Emma Kenney and how she came out to say that emmy rossum wasn't a joy to be around on set and what not;
they say shit like how emma kenney is a brat on shameless and irl and i think that is so strange.
yes, you watched her act in a show, but this doesn't equal to knowing her personally.
you do not know her and she does not know you, how would you know if she is a so called brat?
with that being said, emma kenney is not bad at acting either. the casting directors would have not accepted her if they didn't think she would be good, or shall i say PERFECT; for the role.
and no, just because you dislike her does not mean nobody likes her.
her social media following says otherwise and the multiple blogs that write for her and her character debbie gallagher also prove you wrong.
and yes, so what if emma kenney said positive things about emmy rossum?
a human can be your favourite person to walk this earth but simultaneously be a horrible person.
i do not believe that emmy rossum is abusive, i think it was a financial matter.
i do agree that she one of the reasons shameless was so liked and that she was infact under paid but to take it out on your coworkers, let alone coworkers who are minors?
that's a whole different thing. she did not deserve to be under paid but she was not in the right to act shitty towards the people she works with.
hating on a real person because you dislike their work and portrayal of a fictional character is fucking delusional and downright insane.
like i am truly in shock.
p.s., this post was fuelled by this weird ass tiktok post on my fyp about how emma went on a podcast to talk about her ON SET. experience, so you can probably already see what the comments looked like.
if you can't imagine what the comments were, its just people being ignorant and weird because they are busy dick-riding a character they like a lot vs a character they hate so much that they are willing to go as far as invalidate a person's experience.
