"The studio was determined to have her, and she was determined not to do it," David Frankel recalled ahead of the 15th anniversary of the hit film.
“The Notebook” star Rachel McAdams turned down the role of Andrea “Andy” Sachs in “The Devil Wears Prada” three times before Anne Hathaway was ultimately cast instead, the film’s director revealed Monday. “The studio was determined to have her, and she was determined not to do it,” David Frankel recalled of McAdams’ reluctance to join the cast in an Entertainment Weekly profile marking the upcoming 15th anniversary of the 2006 film.
