“But yeah, I thought I fucked up at that moment,” she laughed, “but I guess I didn’t.”

Even though Brenda didn’t share the name of the other project, people think she made the right call.

“What kind of agent would be upset over their client choosing a small role in a David Fincher and Aaron Sorkin movie???” one user wondered over on Reddit. “The social network is an iconic movie,” said another. “She made the right choice and I was absolutely thrilled to see her when she came on screen!”

“And her role may have been small, but it was so memorable!” another fan added. “Being in a rare Fincher movie written by Sorkin and playing someone with a loose screw always wins over any other offers. She’s a smart cookie!”

Another said, “her not having a bigger career after TSN makes so much sense now.” While someone else praised Brenda’s current success and said they “honestly feel like we’ll see brenda doing amazing work for a really really long time.”
