Running in Heels: Cameron Diaz’s Challenging Scene in The Holiday

During an interview with Vulture in December 2020, Cameron Diaz discussed the challenges of filming the running scene in The Holiday. She revealed that the scene where her character Amanda runs back to Jude Law’s character, Graham, was not originally in the script and took over a week to shoot.

Diaz humorously explained that she ran across ten fields in heels while wearing a Valentino cashmere wool trench coat, a cashmere sweater, jeans, and high-heeled boots. She estimated that she ran about seven miles a day through mud and hills, joking that she became “so fit” by the end of the week. Diaz found it amusing how a short script description turned into a lengthy two-week shoot.
