Cara Delevingne Describes Her Odd Method Of Preparing For Her SUICIDE SQUAD Role

Cara Delevingne is about to star in Suicide Squad as The Enchantress, who many are speculating to be the film’s main baddie, alongside some big name talents like Will Smith and Jared Leto. In a recent interview, she discussed meeting with director David Ayer to join the ensemble cast. “I met the director, David Ayer, at a hotel in London on a dark and stormy night. He didn’t tell me anything about the movie. Instead, he showed me pictures of these amazing, enlightened, powerful, but very evil women. He spoke to me about addiction and mental illness, which are things I find very, very interesting,” she said.

She went on to discuss the next stage of the production process when she met with the director for the second time. “The next time I met David was at his house in L.A. He asked me to read a scene from Who’s Afraid Of Virginia Woolf? I love that play and had acted in it at school when I was 17, so I was excited. Somehow, when we were doing the scene, I became livid. I hadn’t felt rage like that in years. And then I got the part!”

However, things started to get really weird, really quickly. At the recommendation of the director himself, Delevingne’s peculiar method of preparing for the role once she got the part involved some really strange, explicit things. “David asked me to go and try and find a forest and, if it was a full moon, get naked and walk through the woods with my feet in the mud, which I did. There wasn’t a full moon, but I howled like a wolf. It would have been really funny if someone had seen me”. You can see Cara Delevingne in Suicide Squad, which releases August 5th, 2016.
