Fans of Kim Kardashian are split in their opinions regarding her upcoming acting role in the comedy film “The 5th Wheel,” with some expressing their support while others criticize it as another instance of “stunt-casting” following her appearance in “American Horror Story.”

Fans have been left divided over news that Kim Kardashian is now turning her hand to comedy following her role in American Horror Story: Delicate in September.

The reality star played a sassy publicist named Siobhan Corbyn in the series, yet many fans weren’t impressed with her acting skills and branded her role a ‘stunt-casting,’ meaning it was given to her for marketing purposes rather than based on merit.

One fan wrote: ‘Kim Kardashian isn’t an actress this is stunt casting to get viewers. This just another example of superficial American culture is.’

While another added: ‘F*****g stunt casting. Not sure I’ll watch the new season of AHS.’

Yet the negative comments haven’t stopped the star pursuing new projects, as she is being eyed to star in and produce the comedy film The 5th Wheel, according to Deadline.
