Richard Gere had some thoughts reminiscing about his hit 1990 film “Pretty Woman.”
While appearing over the weekend at a masterclass during the 81st Venice Film Festival, Gere joke that he and costar Julia Roberts had “no chemistry” in a scene where his character, wealthy businessman Edward, undresses Robert’s character, Vivian. “This actor and this actress obviously had no chemistry between them,” Gere said. “I haven’t seen that in a long time. That’s a sexy scene.” Gere said he thought his role in the hit romantic comedy was “criminally underwritten.
We didn’t know if anyone would ever see this little, tiny movie. No one would ever pay attention to this little, tiny movie.” Big mistake, of course, as the romantic comedy went on to become on of the top box office films of its time. The star also said the sexy piano scene was improvised. “Garry said to me, ‘What do you do at late at night in a hotel?’ And I said, ‘Well, I’m usually jet-lagged,’” the now 75-year-old actor recalled.
