Anne Hathaway - who has since won an Oscar, Emmy, Golden Globe and BAFTA - described the chemistry test as 'gross' but admits she felt under pressure to avoid being labelled as 'difficult' so pretended to be 'excited' about it.
Oscar-winning actress Anne Hathaway has described a 'gross' past audition where she had to 'make out' with 10 men. The 41-year-old star described the experience which she said happened in the early 2000s as 'a very different time'. She told V Magazine: '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.
Describing the casting with 29-year-old British actor Nicholas Galitzine - who won the role - she said he chose a song by Alabama Shakes and the audition was 'just easy'. She explained: 'I heard Brittany's voice and I just started smiling. And he saw me smile, so he relaxed, and we just started dancing. 'Nobody was showing off. Nobody was trying to get the gig. We were just in a space dancing. I looked over and Michael Showalter, our director, was beaming.
