I wonder if Katie Holmes was one of them

[masterofmystery]

i just read claire danes and juliette lewis were among those up for andie too. honestly

i could see rachel in the role and super baffled over why she turned it down - like WHAT did she turn it down for (checks imdb) - hmm, looks like she had wedding crashers and the family stone around that time so i guess i can see why she opted for those but still...

Red Eye came out that year too

ETA: JK I think that was the year before but still

[masterofmystery]

I found this on wiki lmao

Hathaway, by contrast, actively sought the part, tracing "Hire me" in the sand of the zen garden on Hacken's desk when she talked about the project with the executive.

That can’t be real.

From the acrobatics she did to get an Oscar, I can believe she did her best impression of Sean Young.
