Zendaya dropped out of playing Aaliyah in Lifetime biopic Aaliyah: The Princess of R&B.
Zendaya revealed on Instagram that she dropped out of the movie because "the production value wasn’t there.” She also said she had tried to reach out to Aaliyah's family to get their blessing for the film, but could not reach them, so decided to drop out. The film went on with actor Alexandra Shipp without the approval of Aaliyah's family.
In Will Smith's case for example, if someone just described the concept for " Wild, wild west", it sounds pretty amazing. While you could easily interpret "The Matrix" as: "sounds a bit crazy and out there".
I’m sick of him almost being in every movie.
