10 Best Cara Delevingne Movies, Ranked (According To Rotten Tomatoes)
For many, Cara Delevingne is first and foremost a successful model and a cover face for a variety of famous fashion brands. However, since 2012, fans have had the opportunity to see Cara on the big screen as well. To this day, she's collaborated with some of the most talented Oscar-winning actors out there, and even received a couple of film awards herself. Aside from that, in her most recent acting project, Carnival Row (2019), she shares the main role with the lovable Orlando Bloom. With that in mind, for all you Cara Delevingne fans out there, here are the 10 movies you'll be able to see this beautiful actress in.
10 London Fields (2018), 0%
A crime/mystery thriller based on a Martin Amis 1989 novel bearing the same name, London Fields follows the character of Nicole Six (Amber Heard) - a woman with clairvoyant powers - who tries to seduce three men in order to discover which one of them would eventually kill her. One of these men is Keith Talent (Jim Sturgess), the husband of Kath Talent embodied by Cara Delevingne in the movie - an extremely passive role of a cheated and abused wife. The rest of the acting crew features Billy Bob Thornton, Theo James, and Craig Garner; but, it's also interesting to point out Johnny Depp who appears uncredited as Chick Purchase. Unlike the cult book, the movie was a massive flop, evident in part from the horrible approval rating of 0% based on the 35 reviews on Rotten Tomatoes and an average IMDb rating of 4.3/10.
9 Tulip Fever (2017), 10%
Like the aforementioned film, Tulip Fever is also a screen adaptation of a novel, written by Deborah Moggach. This historical romantic drama tries to imagine the affair of the married Sophia Sandvoort (Alicia Vikander) with a young painter Jan van Loos (Dane DeHaan) in the Tulip mania period of the seventeen century Amsterdam. If we take into consideration the movie's box office earnings of $8 million versus the $25 million budget and all the criticism that followed it, it seems that this ill-fated masterpiece disappointed quite a few viewers. As for Delevingne, she appears in this movie in a supporting role of Annetja - a promiscuous tulip trader who finds herself committing a petty crime.
8 Suicide Squad (2016), 27%
In spite of the relatively high expectation and a palette of famous actors in its cast (Will Smith, Margot Robbie, and Jared Leto), Suicide Squad didn't fare well with neither the critics nor the audience. Cara did, however, deliver a relatively good role in the movie, playing Dr. June Moone - an Archeologist whose body was possessed by an ancient spirit after which she becomes the embodiment to an ancient and malevolent spirit of the Enchantress. The role even earned her a Choice Movie Actress: AnTEENcipiated award at Teen Choice Awards. And although a sequel to the movie was announced for the August of 2021, don't expect Delevingne to appear in it.
7 Pan (2015), 27%
6 The Face Of An Angel (2014), 37%
5 Kids in Love (2016), 38%
4 Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (2017), 47%
The film was directed and written by Luc Besson, and bases itself on a French science fiction comics series titled Valerian and Laureline. It's one of those films that, due to its unimpressive narration and plot, tries to make itself up to viewers with stunning visuals. Delevingne embodies Laureline in the film, and her space adventure partner is played by Dane DeHaan. We should mention here that one of the main objections many critics have for this movie is the lack of chemistry between the pair of actors. However, the film's worth a shot, especially if you'd like to see many famous faces such as Clive Owen, Ethan Hawke, and Rihanna.
3 Paper Towns (2015), 57%
2 Anna Karenina (2012), 62%
Even if you haven't read this Tolstoy masterpiece, we assume you're all familiar with the tragic story of Ana Karenina, especially because up until today, at least a dozen movie adaptations have been made following the novel's plot. 2012's Anna Karenina is one of them, and the main role belongs to Keira Knightley. As opposed to all the movies we've mentioned on this list earlier, the movie turned out to be quite a success, evident from all the award nominations it was able to accumulate as well as the critics' reactions. As for Delevingne, it was this very movie that started off her acting career, placing her in the role of Princess Sorokina, the marriage interest of Count Vronsky.
1 Her Smell (2018), 83%
According to Rotten Tomatoes, Her Smell proved itself to be the most successful movie Cara Delevingne had ever acted in, also making good use of the beautiful actress's musical talent. The protagonist is Becky Something (Elizabeth Moss), a front woman of a made-up '90s female punk rock band called Something She, whose career is put in danger due to the appearance of all the new young talents, such as Delevingne's character Crassie Cassie - a member and drummer of the band Akergirls. Fun fact: the video for the song "Can't Wait" was actually filmed during the shooting of this movie. Her Smell problemizes topics such as self-destructionism, drug addictions, and all the other personal demons and private problems plaguing talented musicians such as Becky Something, who are trying to regain their former glory.
