London June 17 (IANS) Actress Anne Hathaway s "awful" "Ocean s Eight" character is based on how she imagines she d be if she took fame too seriously.
"She s called Daphne Kluger she s an actress and - well she s awful. She s won two Academy Awards and seven Golden Globes she has two ex-husbands. She s very very full of herself and doesn t care in the least about what people think about her because she doesn t care about other people " Hathaway told HELLO! magazine.
Asked if she was based on anyone in particular she added: "Not really. It was just an idea I had about how I might have been if at the beginning of my career I d taken fame very seriously. And what would have happened if I d cared about myself more than I care about other people."
The movie has a largely female cast which includes Cate Blanchett Awkwafina Sandra Bullock Sarah Paulson Mindy Kaling Helena Bonham Carter and Rihanna and Anne made a lot of "very good" friends on set insisting no one was a diva reports femalefirst.co.uk.
She said: "We became very good friends. I genuinely love all those women. Of course I ve seen people behave badly in my life but I ve seen more people behave badly in the real world than on set.
"If you behave like that you probably won t have a very long career anyway because at a certain point people can choose who they work with and most of the people who are at the top are lovely."
