Daryl Hannah: The Film Offers I Get Are Insulting

Daryl Hannah has denounced the majority of film offers she gets as ‘mostly cr*p’ and 'insulting’.

The star of movies like 'Splash’, 'Blade Runner’ and Tarantino’s 'Kill Bill’ made the rather frank remarks in an interview with Style magazine.

- SPECTRE poste pays homage to Bond’s past
- Actors who were much older than their characters
- Movie moments that happened by mistake

Asked whether being offered sub-standard roles bothered her, she said: “Not really, because I’ve been working for a long time and, to a certain extent, I’m satiated.

“I’m not ambitious or desperate to be working all the time, because I have a lot of other interests and creative outlets.

“But, at the same time, it’s insulting when you read a piece of c**p and you’re like, 'Is this really what it’s come down to? Thanks a lot’.”

She added that the requirements outside of acting in the movie business aren’t to her taste either.

“I always loved the process, but was very uncomfortable with other aspects of the job, the publicity and stuff,” she said.

“'I never got that kind of satisfaction, that people might be looking at me because they think I’m great. It made me feel weird and conspicuous, and more withdrawn and self-conscious.

“It doesn’t imbue you with happiness or self-esteem, or any of those things that people project onto it.”

Hannah had been in something of a career wilderness before Tarantino cast her as Elle Driver in 'Kill Bill: Volume 1 and 2’.

Recently she starred in the Wachowski-produced Netflix series 'Sense8’.
