Kindness Backfired: Dakota Johnson recalls an audition that failed her
Dakota Johnson says she once blew a callback audition by being polite—she shook everyone’s hand and introduced herself, and the feedback was that she seemed pompous. She didn’t get the job, with the team saying she appeared cocky, though she insists she was simply courteous. Johnson has since built a career in film and produced projects through TeaTime Pictures, including Am I Okay? and Daddio, and she’s open to more producing work or even unconventional acting roles, like a psychopath or an action project.
