Jennifer Lopez’s co-star gets honest about her one film

In 2002, Jennifer Lopez-led Maid in Manhattan was released. She co-starred with Ralph Fiennes in the rom-com.

However, the Harry Potter actor did not feel great overall while filming. During an interview with People, the Schindler’s List star recalled being unable to fully embody the character of a U.S. senator because he did not know much about American politics at the time.

“It was rom-com writing. It was light,” he shared. “[But] I think I felt a little bit at sea sometimes. [I wondered] ‘Now, who is this Republican senator?’ My antennae for things American — I think — got better since. But then I think I was kind sometimes a little bit lost.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Ralph remembered his late friend from the film

“I was friends with Natasha. And it was incredibly devastating to all of her friends and — of course — to her family that she died so tragically and so young.”

“I have a lot of happy memories of spending time with Natasha and [her husband] Liam [Neeson]. She was a wonderful, kind, open, generous host, wonderful actress, and I really valued her friendship,” he concluded.
