Jude Law drops a bombshell that will devastate ‘The Holiday’ fans: ‘I’m sorry’
There’s no place like home for the holidays — when there is one.
Jude Law devastated “The Holiday” fans by revealing the iconic English cottage featured in the 2006 movie was not actually real.
“That cottage doesn’t exist,” the actor said on BBC Radio 2’s “The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show” Friday, eliciting gasps from multiple people in the room.
Law, 51, explained that director Nancy Meyers was “a bit of a perfectionist” and decided to take matters into her own hands after failing to find the perfect location for the Surrey-set romantic comedy.
“She toured that whole area and didn’t quite find the chocolate-box cottage she was looking for,” he recalled.
“So she just [rented] a field and drew it and had someone build it.”
The Oscar nominee then dropped another bombshell, admitting the scenes inside the makeshift cottage were not even filmed there.
“We were shooting in the winter here [in the UK], and every time I’d go in that door, we’d cut,” he remembered, “and we shot the interiors in LA about three months later.”
As the hosts of the show begged Law to stop ruining the movie’s “magic,” he acknowledged he had “just burst the bubble,” adding, “Sorry!”
The “Fantastic Beasts” star acted opposite Cameron Diaz in “The Holiday,” which also starred Jack Black and Kate Winslet.
The film takes place during the Christmas season and has become a staple each December like “Home Alone,” “Elf” and other classics.
“I find it just, honestly, glorious,” Law said of its long popularity and influence.
