“It was basically a suit and a good haircut," Gere joked during an event at the Venice Film Festival.
Richard Gere thinks the script for “Pretty Woman” left a lot to be desired when it came to his character, millionaire playboy Edward Lewis.
While speaking during a masterclass at the Venice Film Festival on Sunday, the leading man joked that his part in the Garry Marshall-directed picture was “almost criminally underwritten.”
“It was basically a suit and a good haircut,” he laughed in a clip shared by The Hollywood Reporter’s Chris Gardner.
To help bring his character to life, Gere revealed how he and Marshall ended up improvising one of “Pretty Woman’s” most pivotal scenes: a steamy sequence where Lewis plays the piano for Julia Roberts’ spirited sex worker character, Vivian, before things get hot and heavy between the two.
After the clip rolled during the masterclass, the star smirked and said, “This actor and this actress obviously had no chemistry between them.”
