The Wackness and Mary-Kate Olsen
May 11, 2008 by Erin Balser
According to the Wall Street Journal, Mary-Kate Olsen auditioned for the lead female role, Stephanie. Stephanie is Luke’s love interest in the film. Ultimately, that role was given to Olivia Thirlby.
Olivia is a great actress. She’s also starred in Juno with Ellen Page and United 93. I’m excited to see what she’ll do with The Wackness.
As we all know, it ended well for MK. She was cast as drug user and hippie Union.
The Wackness will be in theatres on July 3.
