According to Business Insider, Emma Stone had to audition to get the role of one of the main characters in "The Favourite."
Director Yorgos Lanthimos said he did it so he was confident Stone, the only American actor on set, could pull off a convincing English accent.
"I just didn't want her to feel uncomfortable while we were doing it or make a fool of herself,"
Stone said she did not feel insulted having to read for the part, as she also was able to find out "if you like the director."
