Ocean’s 8 + Lou’s outfits
Tag Archives: cate blanchett
As an actor, I endeavor to find the reason in the unreasonable. Because no one thinks they are being unreasonable or unrealistic or demanding or behaving madly. We all see ourselves as being justified.Happy 49st birthday, Cate Blanchett! (May 14, 1969)
Did they just put Cate Blanchett in suits for #Oceans8? I’m not complaining but damn.
QOTD Reading update: Can Gabrielle PLEASE be y mom. She’s such a badass oh my god. She isn’t taking any shit and is like, “all I care about is my son so can we hurry this meeting up so I can go back into the wilderness?” I actually laughed out loud at “If I waste this bitch, to use the vernacular, do I waste the rest of us too?”
Gabrielle is a BAMF.
[X](Yes, Gabs. That’s what happens. As of QOTD. Also that’s your son’s GF you’re talking about wasting,… awkward…)
//OMG Gabrielle having an underground glass lair or a few around the world) where she could see things growing in the dirt, everything within it is high tech. Like how Seth and Fareed are the Physical Doctors and Neurologists of the Vampire world Gabrielle would be the biologist, ecologist, geologist, etc of their world with her own team (well prob just only Eleni).
Sounds good to me!
Found your VC casting list when musing about one of my own. What do you think about Gillian Anderson as Gabrielle?
I think she’s frickin’ gorgeous is what I think about Gillian Anderson.
Physically, I am pretty attached to Cate Blanchett, Charlize Theron, Michelle Pfeiffer… especially the latter two in terms of their kittenish features. They could all potentially kill it, acting-wise. They’re all about the right age to play the role, as is Gillian. Yes, the Dark Gift makes you younger-lookin’, but I’d still want someone who was closer to the right age at the beginning, anyway, to help combat ageism in Hollywood! And to be more true to the story.
Factoring performance in, I think Gillian would be great, too. For one thing, she could beat Brad Pitt right into the ground with her eye-rolling skills alone (he does so much of that in IWTV!), the art of which she had perfected 20+ years ago.
^“He’s behind me making that fucking face again. I don’t even have to turn around to know it. God damn it. I hate that goddamned stupid face he makes. God fucking damnit.” (Gabrielle re: Lestat, too.)
^Looks amazeballs in a suit, too. Gabrielle prefers menswear 😉 Lestat made her wear the shoes, the only compromise in this outfit.
^Gabrielle’s most frequently used phrase, in one of many variations.
^Pretty sure this was a scripted line, but I bet Gillian would agree. The role of Gabrielle would probably be very appealing to Gillian.

The Vampire Chronicles Aesthetic: Gabrielle De Lioncourt
“We write our own fairy tales, my love,” I said, “The lesson in this is that nothing can destroy what you are now. Every wound will heal. You are a goddess.”
“And the goddess thirsts.” She said.
“What are you waiting for, the church to pronounce it a miracle?”
