Selma Blair will portray the most famous momager out there, Kris Jenner, in the upcoming American Crime Story anthology series The People v OJ Simpson and she’s dishing on how she’s achieving her look.
She was confirmed as being cast as Jenner back in May, and she’s put some thought into how to portray a very recognized face.
“She has such a look and her eyes are so big and such a part of her face,” Blair told The Hollywood Reporter. “I’m playing her in the ‘90s maybe before that look was as perfectly honed as it is now, but [the eye] was kind of the key.”
Blair went on to say that she has spoken with Jenner, who was previously married to one of Simpson’s defense attorneys, Robert Kardashian, about playing her.
“It was helpful because I really grew to like her,” she said. “I really felt she had such an open heart so it was a wonderful thing to have that in my back pocket.”
David Schwimmer, who will play the late Robert Kardashian, also spoke with Jenner, saying she was “very generous with her time.”
