My big breasts got in the way of 'Steve Jobs' movie role: Kate Winslet

Actress Kate Winslet is of Oscar-winning pedigree, but she claims that she couldn't interest Steve Jobs director Danny Boyle and producer Scott Rudin because she felt her voluptuous figure might have come in the way.

She told a UK daily, "I couldn't get hold of a script. For some reason, they had mental blocks and couldn't get beyond my blonde hair and big breasts and see me in the part. I look nothing like Joanna (a character in the movie). She has dark hair and glasses. We're very different. That shouldn't have been a problem because actors transform themselves in films all the time. But blonde and breasts were getting in the way. I put on wigs, had a bit of makeup done and shot selfies that I pinged over to Scott. I thought, 'That's probably blown it...!' They were cheap acrylic wigs, but at least I wasn't blonde in them'. Danny later looked me in the eye and said, 'I want you to play this part'. It all happened very quickly after that."
