When Zoë Kravitz landed the role of Selina Kyle in The Batman Cast I’d assume a pandemic was not one of the challenges she had anticipated going into the shoot. I’d also assume that she didn’t expect pop superstar Taylor Swift to be the person she bubbled with during COVID-19 while she was in London filming the DC movie. Both were true and they are now close friends and collaborators.
The strict protocol for pandemics required that the cast and crew of a movie be made between 2020 and 2021. This meant that they had to have very little or no social life. Since The Batman Because these protocols were in place at the outbreak of the pandemic, they were even more stringent. Kravitz was able bubble with Taylor Swift, Joe Alwyn and it was a close friendship. In an interview with GQThe actress shared her thoughts on the time she spent locked down with the long-term couples, saying:
She was my pod. Her presence was an important part of my stay in London. She was there to see me and make sure I had a good meal.
It’s so nice that these two creative geniuses were able to bubble together during the pandemic, and be with each other during a time when it was hard to find people to be with. It’s hard to beat the feeling of being able to spend time with friends and make home-cooked meals. This was especially true during 2020, when such times were rare.
What’s even better about this story is these two friends ended up turning into collaborators. Among Swift’s upcoming projects She released her album MidnightThe album, which includes longtime collaborators Jack Antonoff, her Alwyn, Kravitz was an unexpected collaborator. The opening song of the album was written by the actress. “Lavender Haze,”which was inspired by Mad ManThe upbeat, sassy tune “Karma.” She also had an itty-bitty cameo in Swift’s Easter egg-filled music video “Bejeweled.”Swift appears to admire Kravitz based on their collaboration, as evidenced by Swift’s statement:
Zoë’s sense of self is what makes her such an exciting artist, and such an incredible friend. This inner compass is what allows Zoe to create art and live life with no compromises to who she is.
It’s amazing that Kravitz was able show her musical talents on such an impressive stage. But she has been making music for a while. She’s been the front woman of the R&B duo LOLAWOLF and has released two albums. Her talents include acting and music. She co-wrote and starred on the Hulu show. High Fidelity She will make her directorial debut in the thriller Pussy island (Channing Tatum stars in the movie.).
You’ll likely be able to hear the songs Kravitz co-wrote when Swift goes on tour, and if you want to see the multi-talented actress on screen, you can watch her as Catwoman in The Batman An HBO Max subscription.
