Mr. and Mrs. Smith, the movie that famously brought Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie together, had more than its fair share of production problems.
The Big Picture It's been nearly 20 years since the hit film Mr. and Mrs. Smith first premiered, a solid action-comedy with behind the scenes rumors that altered pop-culture forever. The film, directed by Doug Liman, centered around John and Jane Smith, unforgettably played by Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. The Smiths were two halves of a seemingly boring, not-so-happily married couple, each hiding their secret identities — assassins! — from the other.
It Took a Few Tries to Get the 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith' Casting Right When thinking of Mr. and Mrs. Smith, the first image that comes to mind is one of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie standing back to back. The two are such natural fits for their roles, but in reality, their match came about after quite a few rounds of recasting.
There Were Plenty of Scheduling Difficulties The media wasn't the only thing hindering Mr. and Mrs. Smith's progress behind-the-scenes — there were plenty of logistical hurdles to cross as well during its production. With an initial month-long delay due to issues building the set, filming officially started in January 2004.
The Colombian Government Took Offense to Liman’s Portrayal of Bogotá Mr. and Mrs. Smith was a spectacle stateside every step of the way, but it also made a surprising international impact — specifically, in Bogotá, Colombia. The film's initial scenes show John and Jane meeting for the first time in the Latin American city, in a rundown hotel where they pretend to be together to avoid an old-timey police force looking for solo travelers.
With all these stories considered, the making of Mr. and Mrs. Smith truly feels like a feat. With casting and scheduling changes, pop culture hysteria, and international criticism, one can only be impressed that Liman, along with the rest of the film's cast and crew, was able to make a film so genuinely entertaining. Since the film's release, Liman has continued to direct blockbuster films like Jumper and The Edge of Tomorrow, and currently has a few more projects in development.
