Law explained that director Nancy Meyers, known for her meticulous attention to detail, had specific expectations for the idyllic English countryside home.
“She 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 it and had someone build it.”
The picturesque exterior was constructed specifically for the film, while the cozy interiors were filmed months later in Los Angeles.
“So here’s the funny thing,” Law added, offering a glimpse into the movie’s behind-the-scenes magic. “We were shooting in the winter here. And every time I’d go in that door, we’d cut, and we shot the interiors in L.A. about three months later.”
