With two Academy Award nominations under her belt, you would think Jessica Chastain wouldn’t have any problems nabbing roles. But it wasn’t always like that! The A Most Violent Year actress reveals to Telegraph magazine that many people used to tell her that she wasn’t attractive enough to be on camera. In the magazine’s latest issue, Chastain says, “Only in the past five years have people been telling me I’m attractive. Before then, I wasn’t getting parts because people kept telling me I wasn’t pretty enough.” The redheaded beauty has become known for her gorgeous locks, but some casting directors didn’t appreciate her fiery look and advised that she dye her hair. Thankfully, she didn’t take the advice!
