There are a number of ways to go method when it comes to acting. Reportedly, Meryl Streep didn’t speak to Anne Hathaway on the set of The Devil Wears Prada to maintain her cool reserve for the younger character. Daniel Day Lewis would, it is claimed, text Sally Field in character as Abraham Lincoln during Lincoln filming. Jeremy Strong is allegedly an absolute dick in preparation for playing Kendall Roy on Succession. And now, you can add Zoë Kravitz drinking milk out of a cat dish to the list.
Last week, in a clip from The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Kravitz told Fallon about what she did to prepare for her role as Selina Kyle, AKA Catwoman. Did she study cats? Yes. Did she hang out with them? Absolutely. Did she drink milk from a bowl? Apparently so. When Fallon questions her about that, Kravitz says, “I’m method, dude!”
That, naturally, leads me down the rabbit hole of wondering when else Kravitz has gone method. (Personally, I hope she drank gallons of kombucha and pushed an abuser down a flight of stairs before filming Big Little Lies). No matter, it seems like it worked out in her favor because critics have been raving about what the actress brought to Gotham City.

Kravitz also opened up about her regular “cat time” on set, which was an actual blocked off window of time where she would go in a room and spend some time with the cats that her character owns in the film. (For the record, the cats were also great in the film. Much better than the fake cats in CATS.)
So there you have it, a couple of lessons to learn: If you want to be a cat, drink like a cat. And if you’re going to have cats in your film, it’s typically best to cast real life cats instead spending god knows how much money on CGI felines—unless the cat has lines, in which case, still skip the animation and just get Zoë Kravitz.
