In an interview with InStyle, Zoe said, “I think tattoos are a beautiful form of adornment, just like makeup or jewelry. There are some I like more than others. I have gotten a few removed.”
Although she’s had some removed, Zoe is intent on getting more.
“But I plan on getting more tattoos. Once you’re into it, it’s hard to stop,” she said, adding, “It’s funny because I don’t even know how many I have. I hardly see them anymore because I am so used to them.”

Zoe Kravitz was turned down for a role in The Dark Knight Rises
Zoe recently opened up to The Guardian about some challenges she’s faced in her acting career.
She shared that she was turned down for an audition for a small role in The Dark Knight Rises because she was too “urban.”
“I don’t know if it came directly from Chris Nolan. I think it was probably a casting director of some kind or a casting director’s assistant. … Being a woman of color and being an actor and being told at that time that I wasn’t able to read because of the color of my skin, and the word urban being thrown around like that, that was what was really hard about that moment,” said Zoe to The Guardian.
