Jude Law will not be in The Holiday series
“I don’t know about this thing, except that I will probably not be in it!”
No return for Graham, in The Holiday. While the film will become a series, Jude Law will not be part of the adaptation during production for Apple TV+.
The actor, who embodied the widower in love with Cameron Diaz in the 2006 original film, written and directed by Nancy Meyers, said during the program Teday that he was not even aware of the project before the director contacted him.
“I know nothing about this thing, except that I will probably not be in it!” In fact, Nancy wrote to me the other day to ask me if I had heard of that. Literally. That’s all I know. “
At 52, Jude Law joked by saying that he would play “the grandfather” if he was invited to the series, before confirming that he had no role and not really wanting it. Because for him, the essential condition will be that Nancy Meyers is at the helm. And this is not the case!
“Nancy Meyers should be involved so that I accept to be there … It was she who gave her magic to the film at the time.”
However, Nancy Meyers, was not contacted. The famous screenwriter, producer and director of romantic comedies, even admitted her amazement by discovering this series project, without her being consulted.
Recall that the Apple platform is preparing a new version of the cult film of 2006, with unpublished characters, while taking up the basic concept: two women, one British and the other American, exchange their houses for the end of year celebrations … and find love where they did not expect it.
