Ben Affleck’s ‘Gone Girl’ mistress cast with Emily Ratajkowski: good pick?

Emily Ratajkowski is the “Perfect Breasts” girl from the “Blurred Lines” video. Even if you’ve never watched the YouTube-banned version of the video, you should recognize her and her prefect breasts from the SFW version of the video. Ever since “Blurred Lines,” Emily has seen her career skyrocket. She’s doing men’s magazines and high-fashion editorials. She’s getting runway work. She’s the Hot New Girl that every straight dude (and a surprising number of ladies) wants to bang. I’ll admit it, I’m attracted to her. Her breasts are so, so beautiful. And Emily has a beautiful face too if you can tear yourself away from her rack.

So, now that Emily is everywhere, casting directors have come a calling. And it looks like Emily just scored her first film role. It’s a doozy too, and it’s absolutely perfect casting. Emily will be playing Nick’s college-age mistress in Gone Girl. Yes, the beautiful model with the perfect breasts is going to be rubbing on Ben Affleck. Celebitches, this sh-t is about to get SO GOOD.

In her first major movie role, model-actress Emily Ratajkowski is nearing a deal to play the hotly contested role of Ben Affleck’s mistress in David Fincher’s “Gone Girl,” an individual familiar with the project has told TheWrap.

Ratajkowski is best known as the bombshell beauty at the center of Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines” video, which has nearly 174 million views on YouTube.

20th Century Fox and New Regency are behind the feature adaptation of Gillian Flynn’s bestselling mystery novel. Affleck stars as Nick Dunne, who is implicated in the disappearance of his wife Amy (Rosamund Pike).

Ratajkowski will play Andie, a beautiful college student who Nick has an affair with before she bands together with Amy’s parents to incriminate him in her disappearance.

The eclectic supporting cast features Carrie Coon as Nick’s twin sister, Tyler Perry as his defense attorney and Kim Dickens and Patrick Fugit as the detectives on the case. Neil Patrick Harris also has a supporting role.

Reese Witherspoon and Bruna Papandrea are producing “Gone Girl” through their Pacific Standard banner along with Leslie Dixon. Production starts this fall.

Born in London, Ratajkowski started modeling at age 14 and was signed by Ford Models. She has appeared on television on Fox’s “New Girl” and Nickelodeon’s “iCarly,” and she’s currently on the cover of Carine Roitfeld’s CR Fashion Book.

[From The Wrap]

Dude. Ben Affleck is going to be lucky to complete this film without Jennifer Garner filing for divorce. I’m not saying Emily is “up” for having an affair with her married costar or anything – I don’t know her, I don’t know if she has a boyfriend (but if she does, that dude is a lucky bastard). What I’m saying is that I know Ben and his tendency to self-sabotage. And just one look at Emily’s breasts makes me want to give her my Social Security number and all of my banking information, so this is going to be a huge, epic mess if she’s confirmed for the part. It’s sort of amazing that she would get the part too – she really is perfect for the role.

    BOOBS – yes, but those lips are kinda distracting

    • Spooks says:

      Yeah, great body, but shame about the face. Personally, I think her face is, well, quite, unfortunate.
      I’ve never seen an interview with her, but in the music video she was so incredibly annoying.

    • Bubbling says:

      I just got to seeing “Blurred lines” video for the first time. BOOBS Stupid song and bunch of boobs lemme tell ya

    • Tiffany :) says:

      I thought her face looked pretty in the video, but these shots make her lip injections so obvious, it looks terrible!

      She is super gorgeous, but needs to leave her lip alone! Eeek!

  2. Anna says:

    Her face is meh. She’s one of those people whose hair makes their face look better. As for her boobs, I haven’t seen them. Are they real? And yea, Ben is screwed. He probably only took this role to mess around with a young girl

    • Lindy says:

      Having seen the nude video, I can tell you that they are real. And they are spectacular!

    • rtms says:

      It’s definitely the hair that makes her look better. When it’s a mess/rats nest she starts looking good. When it’s calm her inflated lips are so distracting and ruin the look. She’s just meh without the freshly banged look.

    • Nooneimportant says:

      I’m one of of those people and I ain’t afraid to admit it. Lol. Without hair I wouldn’t get laid. That’s for sure. However, they do say a woman’s hair is her crowning glory. No truer words have been spoken.

    • Stef Leppard says:

      So, huge boobs are the thing right now (see also Kate Upton). No need to cover up these ladies anymore, I guess! *rips off Victorian lace collar to reveal enormous heaving bosom*

  3. Rose says:

    Oh good! How much more can Jennifer Garner take?!

  4. Merritt says:

    This movie is going to be terrible. I liked the book but the casting is all over the place. The mere fact Tyler Perry is going to be in it, tells me everything I need to know.

    I don’t know if Emily can act but I have doubts.

    • Lindy says:

      I like the idea of Tyler Perry as the attorney. I like him playing against type. Wasn’t he successful in another drama recently? Alex Cross?

      • Merritt says:

        The film wasn’t successful and he was nominated for a Razzie. He is a terrible actor.

      • M.A.F. says:

        I don’t think that movie was very successful.

        As for this girl, I haven’t read the book so I don’t know if she is right. But hey, more power to her for making that video work in her favor.

      • Jen says:

        No, nothing about Alex Cross was successful. It was a flop both critically and commercially.

    • Jen says:

      Seriously, anything with Tyler Perry in it, outside of movies about black people acting like fools, is going to be a giant pile of poo.

    • Kelly says:

      Agreed. The casting is awful. I was excited for the movie, until they started casting. Now I don’t want to see it.

    • jaye says:

      I wonder why they cast him in the role? The character in the book is white and his wife is black? Did they eliminate the wife for the movie and decide to make the attorney black instead? Just curious.

    • littlestar says:

      This girl is exquisite, but I don’t think she’s right for the role either. When I read the book, I pictured Andie as someone who was more wholesome looking, still sexy but no where near as much of a sex-pot as this girl looks.

      I think Ben actually fits the part of Nick, although he IS older than the character.

      It’ll be really interesting to see how this movie turns out.

  5. LadyRay says:

    She’s a little too skinny for my taste but if her tatas are real, they look beautiful.

  6. blue marie says:

    she’s a pretty girl, I still need to read the book though.

    • j.eyre says:

      Me too. With all this discussion, I am going to have to move it to the top of the pile

      • Jen says:

        It’s not that great. The first half is an ok mystery, then the second half is just laugh out loud stupid.

      • TheyPromisedMeBeer says:

        @jen – I thought I was the only one who thought Gone Girl was ridiculous. It’s #Firstworldproblems: the Novel.

      • Green Girl says:

        It’s a quick read and it’s fine for the beach or while reading on the train. It gets really whiny, though.

      • jaye says:

        @Jen…I have to agree with you on that.

      • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

        I love to read, and it’s one of the few books in my life that I couldn’t finish. In part of it, the author writes what is supposed to be Amy’s journal, and it’s some of the worst writing I’ve ever read. Exactly what a man would think a young woman would think about and write about and sound like, but completely off base and unbelievable. Just awful. Don’t waste your time.

      • bijlee says:

        @GoodNames I’m not sure but I think the author is a woman. I also read the summary of this book on wiki. It sounds boring honestly.

      • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

        @bijlee – you are correct. Thanks. Well, I still hated it, lol.

      • littlestar says:

        @GoodNamesTaken – I thought the out there writing for the first part of the book, the “journal”, was supposed to be like that. Without giving anything away, it wasn’t actually meant to be real, you know what I mean?

        I enjoyed the book. It was a good summer read last year, a perfect end to a great vacation. Suspenseful and a quick read.

  7. starrywonder says:

    Oh come on. Let’s not start something until there is actual evidence for it. I admit Ben has been a bit of an idiot regarding his alleged stepping out on Gardner. However, the past few years they seem really united.

    • rtms says:

      That’s only because he had a big movie to promote and grab and Oscar. This is Blake Lively 2.0 with big upgrades added in.I wouldn’t be surprised if Jennifer camps out on set the whole time.

  8. Rhiley says:

    I know most of you have seen that very uncomfortable video of BA drunk somewhere in South America (I think) and he is begging the reporter to show him her “t*ts.” I know, I know. He was young, dumb, and well, now he is a father, a husband, a respected director. I’m not so sure. He may not try anything, but he is going to love every hour of filming this movie, and poor Jennifer Garner is going to need to borrow some of his hair plugs after it is all over.

  9. Adrien says:

    My God, that woman won the genetic lottery.

  10. Jayna says:

    Her breasts are a boob job, I thought, but a good one. It was her face that was so stunning in the video and great hair. Beautiful girl. But is she even an actress?

    • Lindy says:

      If they’re fake, they’re very good fakes. They look soft enough to be real.

    • Samigirl says:

      I don’t think they’re fake. I’ve watched the video more times than I care to admit (the girl is stunning), and they bounce and land very naturally. She was already busty when she filmed iCarly several years back.

      • hadleyb says:

        See her before pics, they are fake.

        Implants don’t have to be super high and perky – you can get them with a good hang and silicone is super squishy.

        Mine looked like real boobs, decent hang without being droopy and you could squeeze them really good.

        Fake. Fake. Fake.

    • TheOriginalKitten says:

      She’s beautiful. I don’t understand the criticisms of her face at all and her body is obviously a 10.

      Can she act? Probably not.

      • GiGi says:

        Yeah, her face is a real travesty *eyeroll*

        I’m all for snark and giggles, but this is one hot woman. No shade.

        Thanks for being reasonable, TOK!

      • CaribbeanLaura says:

        IKR I’m like “her face is meh???!” homegirl is super sexy give credit where it’s due people!

      • littlestar says:

        I agree, she’s beautiful all around! Oh to be young and luscious… Lol.

      • Xera says:

        Her face stands out even in the NSFW video, she’s also expressive so I’d guess she can act as most people can – the only problem are the fake lips in the pics above

      • Spooks says:

        Well, I find her face ugly. Not meh, but ugly. We all have different taste. One of my friends thinks Angelina is nothing special, which I can’t understand, but it doesn’t make me eyeroll.

  11. Tig says:

    I read that too- and knowing nothing about her and not seeing the video- thought she’d be perfect! Congrats to her!

  12. magpie says:

    Now if we can just recast Affleck.

  13. Eleonor says:

    She reminds me Penelope Cruz.

  14. MademoiselleRose says:

    No wonder Miley Cyrus is doing nude wrecking balls. Seems you still have to get your kit off to advance your career.

  15. Macey says:

    she would be gorgeous if it wasnt for the fake sausage lips. Holy crap it looks like they shoved a slug into her upper lip.

  16. Kdub says:

    I thought mila kunis would’ve been great for that role

  17. TherapyCranes says:

    Why does it matter if her breasts are real or fake? They look great either way. She’s a beautiful woman.

  18. AB says:

    I pictured Megan Fox when reading the book. This lady is very pretty but she looks too old…. maybe it’s just these pictures that make her seem old.

    • Esmom says:

      I pictured Jennifer Lawrence but I think Megan Fox is a great choice. Better than this lady. Although she could be a pleasant surprise, who knows.

    • Maria says:

      She’s only 21 o.o

      I don’t know what the hell they’re feeding the children these days, I swear they look a decade above their age.

      Either way, she’s a pretty woman.

      • Erinn says:

        I’m 23 and hadn’t driven much until I recently bought a car. My mom was like ‘on the bright side if you drive bad you look 16 and people will assume you’re learning’

    • Merritt says:

      I pictured more of a curvy girl next door for the role. Party of Five era Jennifer Love Hewitt, at least physically.

    • Green Girl says:

      I was picturing her, or maybe even Minka Kelly in Friday Night Lights. As far as looks are concerned, I think Emily fits the role. Her character’s only supposed to be 22, 23, I think.

  19. Jennifer says:

    She is beautiful alright, but I don’t see her in that role. I listened to and read the book in the first few weeks after the release, so maybe my memory is failing me.

  20. Dawn says:

    I have to read this book darn it! I don’t really like her look so much, she sort of reminds me of a thinner version of what Kim Karda$hian had morphed into before she went blond and morphed into a Bey wannabe.

  21. TheyPromisedMeBeer says:

    Y’all go on about her boobs. I’m just jealous of her lips.

    • missy says:

      haha well her lips obviously are fake but the up side is that means you can go get yourself some of that, too.
      as someone with full, pouty lips, i think that theyre overrated. with thin lips you can wear all kinds of bright, crazy colors of lipstick and pull it off bc your lips are smaller relative to your face/you dont look like a clown.

      • TheyPromisedMeBeer says:

        Oh boo, they’re fake? I can usually catch that!

        (on studying it, though, her upper lip does give it away, but you can’t tell when she has on fire-engine red lipstick).

      • Macey says:

        Same here Missy, I was born with them too and I really dont get the big deal or why women will completely ruin their faces to try and have them. I have yet to see a decent pair of paid lips. its the only thing people see when they’re fake. It completely takes away from the persons natural beauty, just like this chick. Im sure hers were fine before she did that but now instead of just seeing a beautiful girl all you see is fake sausage lips.
        I always like thinner lips myself but maybe it all boils down to the ‘grass is always greener thing’, you always want what you dont have instead of appreciating what you do have.

      • Merritt says:

        I’m not sure the lips are fake. There are pictures of her from when she had a part in iCarly and they were big then too.

      • Macey says:

        That upper lip has definitely been “enhanced”. you can tell by the shape of it and also the way the upper inside area is, its stretched out to fit the filler or implant, whatever she has in there.

      • GiGi says:

        Ugh. I was born with big lips – and yes, the top one is bigger than the bottom. It happens, people.

        Sadly this wasn’t such a popular look when I was a kid so I got made fun of all the time – but now it saves me a bundle on fillers, lol!

  22. mercy says:

    She looks like Camilla Alves (Matt McConnaughey’s wife).

    I don’t know if she can act, but I’m not down with with the guilt by association, or tarnishing her rep because Ben was a drunken party boy at one time.

  23. Anna Scott says:

    Her lips scare me!

  24. Caz says:

    Be afraid Jennifer Garner. Has she read Ben the riot act yet?

  25. Wif says:

    I don’t think this is good casting. The thing about that character in the book was that she was an average girl with a good smile and big boobs. It was her “normalness” that attracted Nick to her. After having his princessy wife, he enjoyed a roll in the hay with someone that was common. There is nothing common about this girl. I kind of wanted to see Alia Shawkat in the role.

    • Part-time Snarker says:

      That’s what I thought, too. I pictured the character as a pretty, but “average” looking college student. Not a super hot model type!

    • littlestar says:

      Agreed. That’s how I envisioned the character in my head too when reading the book.

  26. Vicky says:

    Those are the best boobs I’ve ever seen. They look real but are too perfect to be real. I don’t know. If they’re a bood job ,it’s the best boob job I’ve ever seen. By the way I also love her waist. The perfect body for my taste. She deserves to skyrocket.

  27. Original A says:

    Ben goes for the Suzy home-maker type, so it kind of depends on the girl’s personality and whether she is up for it. I’m not a big Ben fan, but just because he stepped out once doesn’t mean he is a serial philanderer. The casting for this movie is whack.

  28. Angelic 21 says:

    I haven’t seen the nude version, can someone post me a link where I can see it if it’s available? Since I haven’t seen the nude version I can only judge her boobs by above picture and they look okay to me. Man I also want to see too prefect to be real boobs asap! She looks rather cheap to me.

  29. Bijlee says:

    This woman is literally known for her boobs. I just can’t get past that. None of the other girls in the blurred lines video have skyrocketed like she has. It’s all because of her boobs. I still think that’s really weird.

    • Maria says:

      To be fair, they’re quite lovely but I see what you mean.

      • bijlee says:

        I mean I don’t disagree with that. But that’s all she’s known for is her lovely boobs. I’ve never heard her speak or anything. It’s just kinda weird.

  30. Saffie says:

    Honestly, I this she has the most perfect (real) breasts I’ve seen. Her face is quite stunning as well IMHO. I think what’s interesting about her is she seems very animated in the video whereas some models tend to be very stiff when forced to do something other than pose in a still picture…her personality came through. She also seems not to take herself very seriously and was having fun and open to being a bit silly so maybe segwaying into acting isn’t a stretch. I’m all about the dong, but this girl could bring me over to the other side..lol. Interesting to see if Garner will be **cough** on set a lot during filming.

  31. Maggie says:

    Beautiful! I think it’s all hers too!

  32. Mimilicious says:

    Those are the boobs I have always wanted…they are gorgeous nd I m extremely jealous. Maybe some of these pics posted above don’t really do her justice because in that video, there is no denying her beauty

  33. anotherrandom says:

    I just watched the video and could only get to “meh” for her. She does have good boobs but I’ve seen plenty just as beautiful. I have major boob envy so I pay attention to those things. I don’t think her face is all that but I guess she can fit the bill for Andie. In the video she reminded me of that Jenner girl. The older one.

    This is the first time I’ve heard about Tyler Perry though and I’m disappointed! I liked the big time white southern lawyer with the tall beautiful black wife! I want to see that, not Tyler with either a white woman or even a black wife. It doesn’t have the same effect.

  34. Sandi says:

    Its because she’s Polish, we all have big boobs!

  35. Mandy says:

    Oh boy!!! I think any wife would be very concerned if their husband was working with this chick!

  36. GiGi says:

    You know I don’t mind being 34 but that girl makes me miss 21 if only for the body…

    • TheOriginalKitten says:

      I’m 34 too and I completely echo your sentiments! 🙁

    • Claire says:

      I just turned 35! I do miss my 21 year old boobs – they were really nice 🙁 I did not imagine this look for the part of Andie – she is too exotic looking.

  37. Karen says:

    TYLER PERRY? Noooo…..”Better Call Saul!” Also I didn’t read Andie as an exotic beauty. More wholesome and naturally hot. An air of naivety.

  38. Claudia says:

    Her boobs are amazing. AMAZING!!!

  39. Cecilia says:

    He’s making a movie, not doing a photo shoot right? Here’s a thought – cast an actress not a model. Geez

  40. Baskingshark says:

    Yup. This totally proves the point I’ve been trying to make to everyone who was all RAHR! THIS VIDEO EXPLOITS WOMEN!!!!!!!

    Emily here does not give a Ratajkowski’s ass that her ta-tas were on display to the world or that she had to dance around Robin Thicke in a flesh coloured thong because she got paid and she got famous and because. She. Looks. Like. That.

    So now, (1) About 8 zillion people think she is smoking hot and are not shy about saying so. And you can be as PC as you like, there is nothing that feels better than people thinking you are hot. And (2) she is now going to get paid a whole lot more times and get even more fame into the bargain, both of which are clearly things she wants.

    It is not exploitation when the person who is supposedly being exploited does whatever they’re doing openly and willingly and gets things they want out of it. Call me when Robin Thicke and Pharrell start cruising round in a van, grabbing women off the streets and forcing them to appear in videos and I will be as pissed off and horrified as anyone should be. Until then, Imma save my outrage for things that deserve it!

    • Vl says:

      Actually, I think the issue a lot of people have with this is that sexually acting women are only allowed as side-props, not as actual artists, see Robin Thicke/Justin Timberlake/Miley Cyrus.

      And yes this is exploitation, your counter argument refers to Human Trafficking.

      • Merritt says:

        This is exactly it. The women in the video are props, they are naked while the men are clothed. The gender swapped parodies show how ridiculous the women are made to look. When hot guys show up in a video they aren’t made to look ridiculous. However it has become standard for women.

      • Peebs says:

        They’re not “only allowed” to be anything. They wanted the job, they took the job, they got paid for the job, and then they get more jobs. Exploitation is when you are taken advantage of; doing something that you want to do, and for which you are then compensated does not qualify.

      • Vl says:

        Using the female body as a prop is exploitation. The individuals getting paid makes no difference in the matter.

        A female artist being naked or near naked is called a slutwhore with mental issues, but using naked or near naked female bodies as prop in a video is a-okay.

        If only allowed as anonymous props its exploitation of the female body.

      • Merritt says:

        @Peebs

        Not true. Getting paid does not negate exploitation. Watch some films from the 1930’s. Observe how the African-American and Asian characters ( Red Dust and Vivacious Lady are good examples) are portrayed. Those actors got paid for those roles. That doesn’t negate the exploitative nature of the way the roles were written.

        The same holds true for how women are portrayed in this video. The women are treated as sex objects. Society needs to move away from treating or portraying women as sex objects and focus on portraying people as sex subjects.

  41. Justme says:

    Oye that face is not the best though. But she got good boobs, so the unfortunate and distracting lips and facial features will be overlooked.

    • Ellecommelejour says:

      +1 This is exactly what I’ve been thinking ever since she got all the hype from that (stupid) video/song came out.

  42. Vl says:

    I think she is gorgeous, especially the face. The tits are indeed mesmerizing but if attached to an expressionless face they’re not that attractive.

    As for acting, well she did do a good job at looking as if she was having a good time in the music video, which, I guess, is equal or above Ben Affleck’s acting chops.

  43. drea says:

    So yeah, a great rack can make your career. Can she act? Does it matter? It’s no wonder all these starlets are so desperate to put their body parts out there.

  44. Shelley says:

    I listened to the book as a CD and the two readers (man and woman) did a GREAT job. They made it far better than it really is, and I expect that other book on CD folks will know what I mean. I hated the ending and also am convinced I could not have stood reading this as a book – but it was a very enjoyable CD. Now and then I’m glad about my long commute …

  45. IceQueen says:

    She’s beautiful.

  46. I Choose Me says:

    I didn’t know she was in that stupid video or even who she is but as soon as I opened the article I was hypnotised by her gorgeous breasts. I don’t find her particularly attractive face wise but everything below the neck for me is vavavoom.

  47. Madison says:

    She’s hot and I bet she will be spending a lot of time in Ben’s trailer “rehearsing” and getting advice about her carerr and Hollywood.

    Poor Jen Garner she must be use to this by now, Emily another name to add to the list of women her husband has had affairs with.

  48. Molly says:

    I read this and then I saw the last pic of Affleck with his children, one of them holding her doll, and I want to cry for those kids, cuz I know you’re probably right. Poor, poor, babes. Kids always suffer the most in the fray…

  49. Snowpea says:

    She is hot. If you say she’s not, you’re either blind or asexual 😉

  50. Thiajoka says:

    Lovely timing for this story, btw. I came on this morning, saw the headline and realized that, great, the character of the husband in the book that I’m currently reading has a mistress. So thanks for that. When I finally got back to the book, it was literally at the point of only being a couple of pages away for the mistress to be revealed. Spoilers suck.

  51. Didiz says:

    She looks like Anne Hathaway, Mila Kunis and Camilla Alves combined. People talked about Laetitia Casta’s breasts too a decade ago.

  52. Claire says:

    It must suck to have your husband head off to work and have to pretend make love to someone like this. It has to play with your mind. I couldn’t do it!

  53. hownowbrowncow says:

    Girlish, cute, and hot (b/c of the boobs) but I wouldn’t call her beautiful.
