Rachel McAdams isn't afraid of Russell Crowe
April 16, 2009 by Lance Carter
Rachel McAdams has balls.
In State of Play, which was filmed in Washington, D.C., she plays a cub reporter who teams up with a seasoned journalist (Crowe) as they attempt to untangle a mystery of murder and corruption among some of America’s most promising political and corporate figures.
At first, the two reporters are wary of each other and, appropriately, McAdams and Crowe initially clashed on the set.
“The first day we had quite a disagreement about something in the script and that was kind of fun because neither of us was budging,” she recalled.
“The director, Kevin Macdonald, said it was perfect because we were in character. But as time went on, Russell was very playful and smart and supportive, and we had a great time.”
How many people would go toe-to-toe with Russell Crowe when they first meet him? I don’t know many guys who would stand up to him, let alone a woman.
Can’t wait to see this movie.
