Fassbender and McAvoy are already English-speaking with their own accent. To get rid of a Scottish accent is pretty hard. And Noomi Rapace does have a slight British accent especially when she's been in London for a longer time. As I said she's younger than the ones you've named and therefore more attuned to take on new accents.
There's also something called a "weak/strong linguistic echo". If you've got a weak linguistic echo you can easily take on other accents. Not everything is about PR. Sometimes life gets in the way. ;)

Can't post a link because I'm on my phone but I saw an interview a few years back where she spoke in a different accent. I call BS because her accent drastically changed in just the last few years! :laugh:

And what's the contradiction in there?
A few years back she wasn't living in London full-time. She had hardly done a few English-speaking films. It's natural that her accent has improved and she's not sounding either Swedish or a mix of something else anymore.
 
Yes,people who actually know her spend generally good words about her attitude. But her famous W mag interview "I'm ready to be more known" is still used like an excuse to call her arrogant,entitled and pretentious. It doesn't matter that her words have been largely overblown. Apparently she said that she'll be nominated for three films! Plus,there's Michael. She's not pretty,she's bland,she's not a great actress (I've never seen her but she's not that good :D),arrogant,full of herself,wondering why she's in so many films... :laugh:

From my observation, though i might be wrong, the only people who still bringing up the W interview are michael's fans? Or mostly michael's fans, at least :laugh:
Regular people mostly just talk about her performances and whether or not they like her as an actress..

By the way i'm glad her portrayal of vera brittain is getting rave reviews in the US, she deserves it!

I keep hearing people call her snooty and fake, but there is nothing that comes off about her that would indicate so. I wonder if people are just saying that because she is dating Fassbender. Probably just bitter jealous women who have nothing better to do than to put down another woman.

Yes, its called the Fassbender factor, lol! All the accounts I've read of Alicia are very complimentary; there were Redmayne fans who hung around the Danish Girl set who reported they met Alicia several times and they spoke of how lovely and sweet she is, she chatted with them regularly and they took photos with her. Then there are the girls at the after party for Testament of Youth who reported on all the pda between her and Michael and how sweet they are together (#relationshipgoals) they managed to chat with her and they said she is very humble and sweet. I haven't seen or read anything bad about Alicia apart from stuff written by Fassbender fans. They must be very bitter, jealous and twisted to write some of those vile things. Many of them won't acknowledge Michael is in a relationship with her and many who do accept it adopt a passive agressive style making snarky commentts about how it won't last, he's a womaniser, she's no different to his previous gfs, more chemistry with Marion, there's a PR spin etc etc. They don't want Michael to have a serious girlfriend so they resort to this stuff, Anyhow, I'd put good money on Alicia being in his life for the longterm, I'm just glad to see him happy and I wish them all the best.

I even read somewhere how they are disappointed in Fassy because he's dating a white woman now. I mean, really? People.

Whomever he would date, no one will ever be good enough. Some "fans" are pathetic.

I think the hate for this woman has gotten out of hand. Michael can date whoever he wants. It shouldn't matter her ethnicity of the woman. I really liked Zoe/Michael and Michael/Nicole, but maybe they weren't the best match? Some couples just don't work. I think Alicia/Michael seem sweet together and I have no beef with them. I find it laughable that some fans are thinking it's the end of the world because he's dating a White woman. I'm a Black woman and I could care less about the ethnicity of women he dates...as long as he's happy.

Yeah, exactly - because that's the way normal people react :D - as long as he is happy, that's the only thing that matters.

You are clearly not Fassdong-whipped yet. :lolots:

But seriously, getting so involved in a stranger's private affairs is ... not normal. Would I tell my neighbour if I approve of his new relationship? No! Would I tell my superior that I don't think his white wife is right for him? No! The only time you can talk about someone else's relationship like that is with friends who asked for it. And as far as I can remember none of us is friends with either of them.

Ok well I guess Noomi and AV are just different - both in talent and using their "natural" accent imo. Let's just agree to disagree on this. :smile1:
