Read an article that said she's the next Jennifer Lawrence


Perhaps. I've only seen her in MARCELLA. Reading the description of The Falling, I've no interest in seeing that movie.

To me, she doesn't have the chops or charisma that Lawrence showed in the first movie I saw her starring in (Winter's Bone). She's also not as pretty.

Lots of actresses get called the new Jennifer Lawrence or the new Julia Roberts.How many times has an actress been called `The new Audrey Hepburn`?.Dozens.It means nothing, it`s just an easy comparison and lazy journalism tbh.I saw The Falling and thought she was good in it although Maisie was the real standout.

Agreed.

"Winter's Bone" was one-note morose so there was little dimension to Jennifer's portrayal of the protagonist, which isn't to say she wasn't effective in the role.

Whether Jennifer is prettier than Florence is debatable, but Florence has better curves. In short, she's hotter.

she is more likeable

She is in the Black Widow movie being made. I saw her in the Fighting movie but that whole movie was not as good as they tried to hype it. I can't judge her by just her having to use a bad script. I need to see her outside the UK movies to say if she will be big. Being white with really the audience rate for them gets smaller every day.

Is "Being white with really the audience rate for them gets smaller every day." a real sentence?
