Maria writer's Steven Knight is not surprised by the outcome where Angelina Jolie was not nominated by Screen Actors Guild and Oscars.
He explained, "You have to treat those sorts of things like the weather. There’s nothing you can do about it really and you just have to either get wet or enjoy the sunshine".
"I’m not sure that…the performance isn’t the only consideration, let me put it that way".
About having Jolie as the star in the movie "Maria", he shared, "The thing with Angelia, was that she’s lived a life that in some ways is similar to Maria’s life. In that, she’s been reviewed all through her life…sometimes very harshly."
"The fact that she could relate to what Maria Callas went through meant that you’re starting from a position where you’ve almost got that character without her having to do anything".
"Even if you don't like opera, I think you should watch [it] because it’s a very powerful emotional story and the music, opera music, surprises you. It takes you on the journey".
