This woman lied about her age by SIX YEARS. And yes it matters when going out for college aged roles. If casting knew her real age, they wouldn't have cast her. I know so many people who haven't gotten roles because of their age, so why is no one talking about her lies? How is she still working with ZERO repercussions?
shareRebel lying about her age isn't bad,But Lena Dunham lying about rape is for worst than Rebel lying
shareCasting doesn't care about your real age, just whether or not it is remotely plausible to audiences. Quite a number of the cast of 90210 were in their mid-twenties playing teenage high school kids. This is very common in Hollywood.

Never heard this one before. How did she lie? When they did the talk shows pushing the Pitch Perfect movies, they talked about how much older she was than the other stars. They needed a certain person to fit the role and she was it.
shareCasting doesn't care a whit about age - if you're 20 and look like a 13 year old boy/girl - you can get hired to play a 13 year old boy/girl if you can also act the part.
