Production Notes

THR reported exclusively in May that Rachel was in talks to star opposite Domhnall Gleeson in "About Time". Emma Freud (script editor) later confirmed Rachel was cast. Rachel and Domhnall started doing pre-production late May there were spotted at the CB Make-Up Academy in London but they met each other about a week later.

Rachel and Domhnall Gleeson are cast as the leads. Bill Nighy, Tom Hollander, Margot Robbie, Lydia Wilson and Vanessa Kirby are set to co-star. The film is written and will be directed by Richard Curtis. Filming will start (mid) June and will wrap up in August in London. The movie is expected to release in 2013

Official Plot

The story is described as a fantastical feel-good movie about a man (Domhnall Gleeson) and his ability to travel back in time. He eventually meets the girl of his dreams (Rachel McAdams)

Film Triva

• Rachel replaced Zooey Deschanel, who was attached to this project before but had to drop out due to other commitments.

I think Emma Freud might be producing the film. And we need an About Time thread!

Oh thank you for the thread Lindsey.
The pictures :) Rachel seems to have chemistry with everyone. I'm looking forward to see her work with Gleeson.

Thank you for the thread!

Thanks for starting this. :)

No problem girls :)

I am wondering if she will change her hair for the film, I am kind of hoping she will!

I REALLY hope she's a brunette in that movie and that she'll dye her hair (and not just get a wig like in The Vow) :)

Ditto Aurore.

I was checking Gleeson's filmography, I had no idea he was in True Grit and Never Let Me Go. Good films.

Me too! It's been so long since she dyed her hair ...

I was surprised as well Lydia. For me it's an interesting casting choice, he doesn't seem like the typical leading man for a romantic comedy. And with Curtis writing and directing it won't be.

EDIT: It seems like Gleeson's character will have a daughter, Emma Freud tweeted:

Interesting.

I'm stoked that Bill Nighy is in this. I hope he shares scenes with Rachel. :)

Me too, he is such a scene stealer :lol:

I tried to find more information on when they will start shooting the film and where, but no luck so far.

Looks like they did some kind of production work in a hotel in London:

Thanks for the sighting!

I hope we'll get some set pictures once the shooting starts.

Awww, can't wait for this! :D

Oooog, Margot Robbie is in this? Interesting, I loved her in Pan Am.

Yes she is :) I am not sure how long she is attached to it, but if she was cast after Rachel signed on she could be playing Rachel's sister?
