Emmy Rossum stars in the movie Beautiful Creatures, which is released this week, and she once again plays a bad girl character. Emmy has admitted that her recent role choices may give off the impression that she loves playing the bad girl but it is more about bringing a sensitivity to these characters.

Rossum was talking to Collider, when she explained, “I guess you would think that from my recent choices, but yeah. It’s fun for me to add a humanity and an emotional understanding to these kinds of characters.”
She added, “I think it would be really easy to play them as one-note evil, or for my character on Shameless as just the bad girl from the bad neighborhood. But for me, it’s interesting to add backstory and to add a sensitivity that hopefully will get the audience to get on the bad side with me because it’s fun over there.”
