‘Love Actually’ has become a key piece of Christmas movies. However, Hugh Grant was not so sure, at first, of his chances.
This year marks the 20th anniversary of the film’s making and cast members have come together to honor her and share their experiences, in an ABC special, ‘The Laughter and Secrets of Love Actually: 20 Years Later – A Diane Sawyer Special‘.
In the trailer for the show – which will premiere on November 29 – we can see Emma Thompson telling the presenter, Diane Sawyer, that Grant had a memorable reaction after seeing the movie for the first time.
Sawyer asks (as they share in Entertainment Weekly) if Thompson remembers the first time he saw the finished project.
The actress confirms that she remembers it clearly, for one reason in particular: “Hugh came up to me, as we were leaving the room, and said, ‘Isn’t this the most psychotic thing we’ve ever been in?’”
The video jumps straight to Grant, who laughs as he says: “Did I really say that?”
In the trailer we can also see Grant, who played Prime Minister David, analyzing and commenting on one of the funniest scenes in the film.
The Prime Minister’s ball, at the Downing Street house, after opposing the US President (perfectly played by Billy Bob Thornton), who ends up being interrupted by a secretary. Grant claims that even though he thought that “would hate” Shooting that scene, he jumped right in and even came up with the idea of the secretary himself. Sometimes you just have to go crazy.
You can also see in the trailer the director and screenwriter, Richard Curtis, and other cast members such as Laura Linney, Bill Nighy, Thomas Brodie-Sangster Y olivia olson.
‘Love Actually’ is available on Amazon Prime Video.
