According to the American actress, the practice was normal back then.
Anne Hathaway spilled the tea about a cringe-worthy audition where she had to lock lips with “10 guys” for a role. In an interview with a magazine before her new flick drops, the Oscar winner spilled about chemistry tests, those Hollywood trials to see if sparks fly between actors.
Hathaway dished on these tests. According to the actress, Hollywood has come a long way since her early 2000s auditions, hinting at past uncomfortable experiences. With her upcoming movie ‘The Idea of You’ on the horizon, it’s clear she’s glad those awkward auditions are in the rearview mirror.
Hathaway says in the interview:
Back in the 2000s — and this did happen to me — it was considered normal to ask an actor to make out with other actors to test for chemistry, which is actually the worst way to do it.
I was told, ‘We have 10 guys coming today and you’re cast. Aren’t you excited to make out with all of them?’ And I thought, ‘Is there something wrong with me?’ because I wasn’t excited. I thought it sounded gross.
She continues her story:
I was so young and terribly aware how easy it was to lose everything by being labeled ‘difficult,’ so I just pretended I was excited and got on with it.
It wasn’t a power play, no one was trying to be awful or hurt me. It was just a very different time and now we know better.

She’s also wearing the producer hat, directly influencing who plays the co-starring role. Adapted from Robinne Lee’s novel, the movie features Hathaway as a 40-year-old single mom swept off her feet by the frontman of a global boy band sensation.
We asked each of the actors coming in to choose a song that they felt their character would love, that they would put on to get my character to dance, and then we’d do a short little improv.
I was sitting in a chair like we had come in from dinner or a walk or something, we pressed play, and we just started dancing together.
Ultimately, Nicholas Galitzine won the part. He was chosen after dancing to a song by Alabama Shakes.
Hathaway remarked that she immediately felt Galitzine was so perfect for the role upon his entrance.
I heard Brittany [Howard]’s voice and I just started smiling. And he saw me smile, so he relaxed, and we just started dancing. Nobody was showing off. Nobody was trying to get the gig. We were just in a space dancing. I looked over and Michael Showalter, our director, was beaming. Spark!
Galitzine has shared his thoughts on their joint audition, expressing his initial intimidation. However, he noted an almost spiritual connection with Hathaway, sharing a sense of humor and simpatico, which made the experience surprisingly easy despite the initial nerves.
‘The Idea of You’ will be released on Prime Video in May 2024.
