"They had it out…I think Ryan respected her for standing up for her character and Rachel was happy to get that out in the open.
I smoked a cigarette and everybody came out like, 'All right let's do this.' And it got better after that, you know?" Cassavetes explained. So how was it fixed? He let his stars hash their s-t out. "We went into a room with a producer they started screaming and yelling at each other. I'm just not getting anything from this.'" "And Ryan came to me, and there's 150 people standing in this big scene, and he says, 'Nick come here.' And he's doing a scene with Rachel and he says, 'Would you take her out of here and bring in another actress to read off camera with me?' I said, 'What?' He says, 'I can't. "Maybe I'm not supposed to tell this story, but they were really not getting along one day on set.
And it was so bad that at one point Gosling tried to get McAdams replaced. While they went on to date and become one of Hollywood's most beloved couples, Gosling and Adams didn't initially get along, according to Cassavetes. But they did and, gosh, weren't they terrific?" "A lot of studios wouldn't have had the courage to put two relatively unknown people in a movie like this. Rachel McAdams, who had not yet starred in Mean Girls or Wedding Crashers, was relatively unknown and had to audition hard to get the role of Allie. "We found Rachel through an audition process and she was wonderful," Cassavetes explained. You're not handsome, you're not cool, you're just a regular guy who looks a bit nuts.'" When I got there, he was standing in his back yard," he told British magazine Company, "and he looked at me and said, 'I want you to play this role because you're not like the other young actors out there in Hollywood. "Nick Cassavetes called me to meet him at his house. Gosling was a little surprised, too, especially after his first meeting with the director. "When I told I wanted to hire Ryan for the lead," Cassavetes revealed to VH1, "they kind of looked at me like I was out of my mind." While he immediately knew he wanted Ryan Gosling as his star, the studio needed some convincing. Alas, scheduling conflicts got in the way, as they always do, and the project was left for years before director Nick Cassavetes came on. And his pick for his leading man was Cruise. Can you imagine Tom Cruise as Noah? Well, it almost happened.Īfter the rights to the novel were snagged by New Line back in 1996, Steven Spielberg expressed interest in directing the movie.
