Anne Hathaway once had to kiss 10 men during 'gross' audition. The Devil Wears Prada actress revealed that she hated having to kiss 10 different men in order to figure out who should play her love interest in a movie around 20 years ago. ”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 ten 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.” The Princess Diaries star admitted that she "got on with it" because she didn't want to be considered a difficult actress. ”I was so young and terribly aware how easy it was to lose everything by being labelled '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.” Hathaway took a different approach to the chemistry tests for her upcoming romantic comedy The Idea of You. Instead of kissing, her potential co-star had to choose a song and dance with her in character. Hathaway, who was also a producer on the film, recalled that actor Nicholas Galitzine picked a song by The Alabama Shakes and she immediately felt a "spark" when they started dancing to it. The Idea of You, in which she plays a single mother who falls for a younger British popstar will debut on Prime Video on 2 May. THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
