Jude Law has ruined Christmas for many fans of “The Holiday.”
The actor, 51, spoke about the beloved 2006 holiday classic during a recent interview on BBC Radio 2’s “The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show,” breaking many fans’ hearts by revealing that the movie’s idyllic Rosehill Cottage nestled in the English countryside … doesn’t exist.
“I mean, I find it just, honestly glorious,” Law said of the film’s devotees who rewatch it every year.
Law plays Graham, a charming single-father of two in the flick, opposite Kate Winslet, Cameron Diaz and Jack Black.
When conversation turned towards stories about being able to Airbnb the cozy Surrey bungalow where Winslet’s character Iris lives, Law lowered the boom on co-hosts Zoe Ball and Kerry Godliman.
“That cottage doesn’t exist,” the actor said, stunning Ball and Godliman.
“So the director – she’s a bit of a perfectionist,” Law continued, referring to romantic comedy queen Nancy Meyers. “She toured the whole area and didn’t quite find the chocolate box cottage she was looking for. So she just hired a field and drew it, and had someone build it.”
“But here’s the funny thing, if you watch it,” he added. “So, we were shooting it in the winter here and every time I’d go in that door we cut and we shot the interior in LA about three months later.”
The news was all too shocking for Ball and Godliman. “Please stop!” Godliman begged. “We don’t want to hear any more!” Ball said, covering her ears. “I can’t bear it.”
Godliman added, “That’s really upsetting. We can’t bear it.”
“I just burst the bubble! Sorry!” Law added with a mischievous grin.
Fans were equally upset.
“And that’s how Jude Law stole Christmas,” one person commented on Instagram. “I cannot believe it!!!! I could cry,” another shared.
Many of the movie’s most die-hard devotees refused to believe Law. “Sorry Jude….this is all real and always will be….you will never shatter my dreams,” someone wrote. “He’s lying 😂 I don’t care what he says it’s all a lie,” one in-denial movie lover posted.
Another incensed fan commented, “blasphemy!!!!” while someone else exclaimed, “What a spoiler!!!”
Meyers had previously revealed the cottage was not real and in fact the product of Hollywood magic in a portion of the the film’s DVD commentary.
“We built that wall and we put in those trees. It really was just an empty field. It was a real tourist attraction while it was there,” Meyers said.
However, the cottage’s time on this earth was short-lived. “But it’s gone now,” she shared, adding that it was torn down once filming wrapped.
