Zoe Kravitz talks ‘Divergent,’ playing the ‘obnoxious girl’ but no mention of ‘Mad Max Fury Road’
Divergent is the next big franchise appealing to a teen audience and one of the stars is discussing the film and her role. Zoe Kravitz, Angel in X-Men: First Class, plays Christina and talked with Allure in a new interview.
“She kind of has foot-in-mouth syndrome. She says whatever comes to mind,” Kravitz says before confessing her real life similarities to the on-screen character. “I will always play the obnoxious girl.”
The story takes place in a society where people are divided into factions based on their personalities. Tris (Shailene Woodley) is a young girl who doesn’t fit into any of the pre-assigned groups and faces grave consequences due to her status as a “Divergent.”
While it’s not a superhero film, the action genre seems to fit for the young actress.
“When I think of girls in superhero films, I think of girls that I don’t look like. But that’s changing a bit, which is awesome. And they’re really fun to make, honestly.”
She discusses her father, dating and much more. Check out the full interview HERE
Kravitz had a role in After Earth and is also set to star in Mad Max: Fury Road, another big action film, playing a character named Toast. That film arrives in 2015.
