The actor has not starred in a feature film since a small supporting role in partner\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/t\/ryan-gosling\/\">Ryan Gosling<\/a>\u2018s 2014 directorial effort \u201cLost River,\u201d although she lent her voice on a 2021 episode of \u201cBluey\u201d on ABC Kids.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cI was never in love with acting. I don\u2019t mean this in a self-deprecating way, but I wasn\u2019t a great actress,\u201d Mendes said. \u201cI had my moments when I worked with really great people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tAs far as Mendez sees it, her best acting work came when she was starring opposite Gosling in 2012\u2019s crime drama \u201cThe Place Beyond on the Pines\u201d or when he was directing her in \u201cLost River.\u201d She said: \u201cHe gets something out of me that\u2019s never been accessible before.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tMendes <a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2022\/film\/news\/eva-mendes-acting-return-violence-sex-1235263182\/\">told \u201cThe View\u201d<\/a> in 2022 that she hopes to act again one day, although the project would have to be \u201cspecial\u201d and not include violence or sexuality. In her new interview with The Sunday Times, Mendes said acting with Gosling would be an easy way to get her back on screen (\u201cThat\u2019s the one thing I would love to do\u201d).<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThat Mendes is not interested in any sexualized roles does not come as a surprise as her 16-year acting career oftentimes included characters that were one-dimensional beauties and eye candy. She admitted to The Sunday Times: \u201cThere were some pretty shitty roles.\u201d There was a time in her career when she was either getting cast because of her looks or getting rejected because of her Cuban heritage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cThat\u2019s all they would say at the beginning \u2014 \u2018she\u2019s too ethnic for this, too ethnic for that,\u2019 \u201d Mendes said. \u201cIt was so crazy. That was the constant note. Then, at some point, it switched to, \u2018Oh, ethnic is cool now\u2019 or, \u2018Being Latina is cool\u2019. It gave me energy because it would make me so mad and then I\u2019d get that fuel that I needed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tMendes\u2019 last leading role in a movie was the 2012 drama \u201cGirl in Progress,\u201d directed by Patricia Riggen. The Lionsgate release only grossed $3 million at the box office. In that same year, Mendes played supporting roles in critical favorites \u201cPlace Beyond the Pines\u201d and Leos Carax\u2019s Cannes stunner \u201cHoly Motors.\u201d Mendes\u2019 last live-action television role was a supporting turn in Larry David\u2019s 2013 HBO original movie \u201cClear History.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2024\/film\/news\/eva-mendes-disliked-acting-1236184615\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eva Mendes admitted in an interview with The Sunday Times that she was \u201cnever in love with acting,\u201d so there\u2019s no real urgency to ending her 10-years and counting break &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/?p=116907\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-116907","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-entertainment","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116907","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=116907"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116907\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=116907"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=116907"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=116907"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
