After working with Lady Gaga on Machete Kills, director Robert Rodriguez knew she would have to be in his new sequel of Sin City.
“I told her she had to be in it. But we needed to find a role small enough that she could do while she was on tour and then this one popped up.We were shooting and it was just a couple of days away, she happened to be on tour in Houston, just a couple of cities away from us in Austin. She was ready. She brought her own wigs! I said, ‘We’re not going to have time to make a wig for you.’ She showed up, we did the scene, she knocked it out of the park and then she was back on tour.”
Rodriguez is certain Gaga could have a long acting career if she wants it. “She would be fantastic,” he said. “The camera loves her. She’s a great performer. She’s performed twice for me now and I was blown away by her discipline. She studied acting before she became a singer and you could really tell.”
