Jennifer Lawrence will no longer be playing Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes in Adam McKay’s film “Bad Blood.”
Lawrence revealed the development during interviews with The New York Times’ Kyle Buchanan for a profile he wrote on her for the publication, according to a tweet by the reporter.
Lawrence said she dropped out of the film after watching Amanda Seyfried’s Emmy award-winning performance as Holmes in Hulu’s “The Dropout.”
“I thought she was terrific,” the actress said, according to Buchanan. “I was like, ‘Yeah, we don’t need to redo that. She did it.’”
Seyfried won her first Emmy Award in September for her role in “The Dropout,” for best actress in a limited series or TV movie.
