The actress turns 35 and, to celebrate, we take a look back at her life and career, on the rise since her surprise appearance in 'Scarlet Witch and Vision'.
Kat Dennings has patiently managed to carve out a career for herself. After escaping from the tangle of not too well-known television comedies thanks to the success of 'Two penniless girls', to become the always pleasant surprise of Marvel, I promise in the Thor saga and now in 'Scarlet Witch and Vision', we dedicate this post to an actress who is worth knowing more about.
Kat Dennings's real name is different
The real name of Kat Dennings is not that, which is her stage name, but a different one. Her name is Katherine Litwack but the actress thought that name was terrible for her career. She shortened her name and chose a somewhat more striking last name, yes, away from her Jewish roots (something that many have questioned).
Kat Dennings is the youngest of five siblings.
She is the fifth child of Ellen Judith Litwack, a poet and speech therapist; and Gerald J. Litwack, a molecular pharmacologist and university professor.
Kat Dennings is also a screenwriter
In addition to being an actress, Kat Dennings is a screenwriter, although her work has not yet paid off. In fact, who knows if she'll pursue that part of film work if she ever gives up acting. In 2008 she signed the script for a production called 'Your Dreams Suck' together with her brother Geoffrey Litwack, but the text ended up in a drawer, like many others that pass through Hollywood offices. However, the script ended up on the Hollywood Black List, a list that is made every year with the best scripts that did not go anywhere, some of which are produced in the future.
The party is not going
Although she has played the part of the typical party girl on several occasions (for example, Max's character of her in 'Two Girls in White' had that touch to a certain extent), Kat Dennings could not hate the world of the party more. the night. "I don't drink, I don't smoke, and I don't like to be around people who do." This, in Hollywood, is quite a milestone.
Kat Dennings was educated at home
Unlike other child actors, Kat Dennings didn't have to worry about studying as she began her Hollywood career. Apart from going to school, Dennings also received extra education at home, which undoubtedly contributed to the young woman being able to graduate at just 14 years old, coinciding with her debut in the acting world. Unlike so many young actors whose school lives fall apart because of her work, Kat Dennings proves that you can have anything if you work hard (and if you're smart enough, of course).
Kat Dennings's parents didn't want her to be an actress
Considering that Kat Dennings was partially homeschooled and graduated at just 14 years old, it was to be expected that her parents would be a little reticent about her brilliant daughter choosing acting as her career. Dennings recalls that her parents thought she was "the worst idea in the world" but when she quickly demonstrated that she had talent and that she began to get jobs they changed their minds. They all moved to Los Angeles together.
A girl made for comedy
Kat Dennings has proven that she is one of the funniest comedic actresses of her generation. She has been playing roles that exude humor for a decade, such as in 'Virgin at 40', 'A bunny on campus', or 'Nick and Nora, a night of music and love'. However, where she did show her true talent was her in the sitcom 'Two penniless girls', where she played a cheeky and funny waitress. She currently produces and voices the animated sitcom 'Dallas & Robo', in which she stars alongside John Cena.
