Rachel McAdams
Interview By: Daniel Portnoy
*Click Here For Another Interview with Rachel McAdams
Young actress Rachel McAdams has already begun to make some waves in Hollywood. Her role as one of the Mean Girls, starring alongside Lindsey Lohan, put her into the spotlight. In her next film she took on the role of Allie Hamilton in the Romantic Drama, The Notebook, which showed off her playful and sensitive side. Today, as she sits at the table with her flowing brown hair, she smiles and exchanges small talk with the room full of journalists who are here to chat about her new movie, The Wedding Crashers.
In this gut busting comedy about two single men who smooth talk their way into weddings with the goal of obtaining some free food, free drinks, and perhaps some pleasurable female company. Rachael plays Claire Cleary. Claire belongs to a family not much unlike the Kennedy’s whose ties run deep into politics and high society. The “Wedding Crashers” are played by funny guys Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson, who previously worked together on Starsky and Hutch.
In the film Vaughn and Wilson’s characters crash the wedding of Claire’s sister, Christina and get more then they expected.
This movie marks the first time Rachel appears on screen with the comedic duo. “They work really well together, you wouldn’t think so they’re so different; they couldn’t be more opposite. They’re sort of like the yin and the yang, they compliment each other… they’re like a cute little couple,” as she bursts out laughing. Yeah, I guess I could see that. Regardless, they get the job done.
In her three previous films, Rachel has had three different hair colors (if you hadn’t already noticed). “Its fun to experiment, I’m always kind of a slave to the character whatever kind of vision comes to my head… and I just have to go with it.” Well there are only so many hair colors you can experiment with, that is unless if you want cross over into pastels. For some reason I don’t see that in her future.
Taking a break from the future lets talk about an actor who got his start in the past. Christopher Walken plays Claire’s father, Treasury Secretary William Cleary. In her first time working with Walken, Rachel was a little nervous. “I was so intimidated at first… he’s so smooth and so good at what he does. He’s such a present person. When you’re acting and in a scene with him he’s right there, and that’s nice.” Present he is indeed. Walken has made a solid career with his awkward mannerisms and in your face deliveries that are for some reason, so damn funny.
A good script has a lot to do with a films success no matter what the genre. But what is it that Rachel looks for when she reads
