The Society Beauty Kathryn Newton in Two-Piece Workout Gear Hits the Links
Kathryn Newton, a versatile actress known for her roles in The Society, Freaky, and Big Little Lies, has also made waves as Cassie Lang in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Recently, Newton took to the golf course, showcasing her skills at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, with the official Instagram page posting a video of her in action. Beyond her acting talents, Newton is passionate about golf, which she turned to during the lockdowns as a way to stay active. She embraces a healthy lifestyle, balancing physical activity with proper nutrition, and proudly does some of her own stunts while on set. With a strong support system in her Marvel co-stars, Newton celebrates her successes while pushing herself to new heights.
She Golfs
As you can see from the Instagram post, Newton likes to play golf. She revealed to Harper's Bazaar in 2020 that she turned to golf to manage the lockdowns. "The golf courses have finally opened up so I got to go out there – and you can play if you stay safe. I have some really cute new outfits from my new Polo Ralph Lauren collection, and it's just a good incentive – I finally get to go and show them off! It's a great way to get some exercise and just be outside."
She Eats Healthy
Newton makes sure to eat healthy. She talked about this in an interview with Only Natural Diamonds. "A good meal makes me feel powerful. I felt really powerful on set, being able to run around for 10 hours a day and then go work out after hurting myself or pushing myself too hard. So I love that I'm strong. I don't diet; I'm not trying to look a certain way. But I love that I was able to use my body for this part."
She Does Stunts
When playing Cassie Lang, Newton does some of her own stunts. She talked about this to Only Natural Diamonds. "I had to run through this tunnel. They were like, 'Okay, so there's going to be some sparks that are going to go off.' And then we did it and it was genuine explosions, walls exploding, fire bombs. I was running so fast. They were like, 'If we had told you what was going to happen, I don't think you would've done it.' I wouldn't have. It was exhilarating. It's no different than carrying my golf bag for 18 holes. I have the stamina to do it. And, I got to wear a super suit — it was purple, my favorite color. It made me feel invincible."
She Celebrates Herself
Newton revealed to Only Natural Diamonds that she believes in celebrating herself. "I woke up at 4:00 AM today. I don't know why. And then I saw the poster was released and I was like, wow, my dream has come true. You need to feel that, because I don't think people celebrate themselves. I certainly don't. I'm always onto the next. So I took a little second to celebrate that moment."
She Has Support
Newton tells Only Natural Diamonds that she has a lot of supportive Marvel co-stars. "From the very beginning, I came to set very quiet," she revealed. "I didn't want to get fired. I didn't want to be noticed because I was so excited to be there. I just didn't want to mess up. I wanted everyone to be proud. And then all it took was Peyton Reed to say he believed in me and because he believed in me, I believed that I was Cassie. He showed me where to go and I just trusted him. Then Paul Rudd gave me the space to play and to take risks and laugh. It really took the pressure off and then I just didn't hold back. I didn't want to let this moment slip. There's never going to be another first time to be Cassie. I keep telling Paul, 'You guys have ruined my life. Nothing's going to be better.'"
