Dakota Johnson Lost Role Over Politeness

Dakota Johnson recently shared an anecdote from her acting career where an act of politeness led to her losing out on a role. During an audition, Johnson extended her hand to greet everyone, a gesture she considered standard good manners. However, the feedback she received was that this act was perceived as "pompous" and "cocky."

This misinterpretation of her behavior deeply surprised Johnson, who stated she "just had manners." The specific role for which this occurred was not disclosed. Looking ahead, Johnson is set to direct her first film, titled 'A Tree is Blue,' focusing on a young woman with autism aiming for independence post-high school. She is also slated for an acting role in 'Verity,' based on Colleen Hoover's novel.
