Kaley Cuoco has recently revealed that she felt hurt and devastated after losing a coveted role in Knives Out 2 to her contemporary Kate Hudson.
In an interview with Glamour, the Flight Attendant star shared that she “cried all night long” after knowing that she didn’t land a role in Rian Johnson’s upcoming whodunit.
“I was convinced that part was mine,” admitted the 36-year-old actress.
Kaley elaborated that she was “convinced” to get the role in Netflix’ upcoming movie and hence she packed her bags for Greece to join the cast on location beforehand.
However, she didn’t get it and the news truly shocked her even though she never behaved this way for any other role.
“I was so devastated. And I am not normally devastated over roles,” The Big Bang Theory star remarked.
Kaley also informed media outlet that she is happy that Kate got the part. But what annoyed her was the reaction from the makers of the movie as they did not give any reason of why the part went to the 42-year-old actress instead of her.
Interestingly, Kaley is currently working on a romantic comedy Meet Cute which also feature Pete Davidson as her love interest.
“I didn’t want to read the script in the beginning as I was distressed but later when they insisted, I read it and found it the most magical little script,” the California native added.
She also recognised that had she gotten Knives Out 2, she would have missed this ‘amazing movie’.
“It just shows you that you are where you are supposed to be,” the actress concluded.
