Jude Law might have just ruined one of his most beloved films for fans by sharing a major secret — and he’s sorry for spilling the beans.
While recently speaking with BBC Radio, the actor made a shocking reveal: that the Rosehill cottage from his 2006 Christmas film, “The Holiday,” doesn’t actually exist.
Law starred as Cameron Diaz’s love interest in the rom-com directed by Nancy Meyers, which follows two people who unexpectedly find love in a picturesque cottage.
After one of the hosts asked about booking a stay in the cottage, Law delivered a jaw-dropping response.
“That cottage doesn’t exist,” Law said in the interview last week, prompting shocked reactions from the show’s hosts.
The British actor then claimed that Meyers “is a bit of a perfectionist” before going on to explain how the cottage came to be.
“[Meyers] toured that whole area and didn’t quite find the chocolate box cottage she was looking for,” Law said. “So she just hired a field, and drew [the house] and had someone build it.”
Law went on to burst fans’ bubbles even more by revealing that the film’s cottage interior scenes weren’t filmed in the charming English countryside, but instead in Los Angeles.
“We were shooting in the winter here,” the actor said of filming part of “The Holiday” in the U.K. “Every time I’d go in that door, we’d cut, and we shot the interiors in LA about three months later.”
Law’s admission caused more incredulous reactions, leading one of the hosts to declare, “Please stop! You’re ruining it!”
An apologetic Law replied, “Just burst the bubble. Sorry!”
