Susan Sarandon has bravely opened herself up to fans’ questions, and given some very honest answers.
The actress is currently in the headlines for her role in Feud, the US TV series about the dramatic falling out between co-stars Joan Crawford and Bette Davis during the making of their classic movie What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?.
Sarandon plays Bette Davis, with Jessica Lange as Joan Crawford, in the eight-part series that was created by Ryan Murphy, the brains behind the hit series Glee and Nip/Tuck.
Hollywood rivals Davis and Crawford famously battled they were making What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?, a 1962 thriller about an ageing actress, played by Davis, who holds her paraplegic sister, played by Crawford, hostage in a crumbling mansion. The film was a critical and box office success, in part due to the undercurrent of real-life hostility between the actresses playing the starring roles.
To promote the series, Sarandon took to Twitter just now to be quizzed by Feud fanatics, who asked her what she loved about Bette Davis, what she’d call her biography, who she’d like to play her in a movie and plenty of other personal questions.
(Sarandon sweetly picked her actress daughter Eva Amurri Martino.)
