Rooney Mara in Pan

In a total fuckup, for last year’s failed Peter Pan spin-off Pan, Rooney Mara was cast as Native American girl Tiger Lily. Mara later apologized for taking the racially appropriated role, saying she sympathized with those that were offended and “felt really bad about it”. Nice one, Rooney but the filmed was largely panned(hazzah!) by critics.
