During a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the 77-year-old revealed that her being cast in the role of Kay Adams-Corleone in 1972's The Godfather, made her apprehensive as she felt she was not the best fit. “I was terrified. I didn’t understand why me. I mean, I went up to the audition," the actress reflected, "and I hadn’t read it. See, this is bad! but I needed a job, so I got up there.

It wasn’t what I thought it would be. I thought, 'Oh, my God, I’m trouble. I shouldn’t be here.'"
