What It's Like To Try Out For Disney Live-Action Roles Like Cinderella And Alice In Wonderland, And Not Get Any Of Them, According To Juno Temple

The world of Disney's live-action movies is a competitive one, and not everyone makes the cut. With plenty more live-action Disney remakes on the horizon, the opportunities are open, but the stakes are higher than ever. Many people have tried out for the blockbusters, including Ted Lasso 's Juno Temple , and she had some surprising lessons she learned during the process.

Interview Magazine had The Offer alums Juno Temple, who wrapped up Noah Hawley 's Fargo on our 2024 TV release schedule , and Miles Teller, who will be showing up on our 2025 movie release schedule . The duo covered all things Hollywood; more specifically, how to deal when realizing some roles are just not meant for some actors, and why that's okay.

Temple shared that she learned that being able to take the 'nos' in stride and how it's helped her grow in her career, particularly for Tim Burton 's Alice in Wonderland. She said:

Even with the tough blow, Temple went on to see the movie and realized why Burton didn't have a space for her in Wonderland. The time, space and final product of a movie all take into specific account who can fill the specific shoes the best, and the Atonement alum realized she wasn't close to the vision.

Juno Temple also mentioned that she still took her chance with other Disney remakes, including Cinderella, only to continue to realize what was true of the modern Alice. She shared:

Early on, the 35-year-old found the understanding and grace to accept the rejections, move through understandingly and even offer the name of peers better suited for a role. That's pretty impressive for a young person in Hollywood, especially since Temple knew she could have acted in the opposite.
