ecstasy Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 So that's the answer. Well it's my opinion. I don't know if it's the answer. It is also my opinion that she doesn't exude the level of charisma on screen that any of the women you named above. I keep going back to that movie where she had a lot of screen time with Russell Crowe. She seemed way out of her league to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cairo Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 She said recently in an interview that she purposefully avoided becoming a bigger name and enjoyed having her privacy. Considering she turned down Get Smart, Devil Wears Prada, Casino Royale, Iron Man etc. her actions seem to support her words. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Huh? Rachel Mcadams is a big star, and very popular. And, with less roles, her combined BO total is already higher than Meg Ryan's. Let's be fair here. Ryan's zenith was 20 years ago. To say that McAdams has bigger box office than her is like saying Bill Paxton has bigger box office than Denzel Washington. McAdams biggest hits are ones that she was in that had nothing to do with her. Sherlock Holmes and Wedding Crashers would have been big without her. She didn't help sell the films. Ryan's biggest films, Sleepless in Seattle and You've Got Mail and When Harry Met Sally are pretty much because of her and her co-star. If you want to use big films like Wedding Crashers then Ryan was also in Top Gun. Ryan's career is done but for about 10 years she was Julia Roberts. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahnamahna Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Yet she took Sherlock Holmes ? She had a supporting role... it was RDJ's movie with Jude Law as the co-star. She basically got 3rd billing as the love interest so it wasn't sold on her stardom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glassfairy Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) She really could be huge if she wanted. She's not just talented but so likable. Whenever I catch a movie of her's I wonder why she isn't bigger but I I suppose she's as big as she wants to be. There are actors and movie stars and Rachel has never seemed to want to be the latter.
