  • The Oscar-winning actress discussed the incident on the "Happy Sad Confused" podcast, stating the filmmaker had initially approached her.
  • The role of Sharon Tate ultimately went to "Barbie" actor Margot Robbie.
  • Lawrence speculated that either the internet's negative comments influenced the decision, or Tarantino was never seriously considering her, and the internet simply called her ugly.
