I mean I knew KD going in, from Jumanji and Small Soldiers. Whereas Tobey Maguire had Pleasantville, The Ice Storm, Wonder Boys and a few other roles and if he was in the press it was as Leonardo DiCaprio's pal. Dafoe had dropped out of the radar completely since the '80s. The moviegoers who knew Tobey Maguire would also know of KD's amazing performance in The Virgin Suicides.
Anyway, I don't really think it's a big deal or anything for KD to ruminate, in retrospect, she shoulda gotten a bigger slice.
