EXCLUSIVE: ‘The Box’ Director And Guest Blogger Richard Kelly On Working With Cameron Diaz

Richard Kelly is the man. Not just because he’ll be here all this week, posting as a guest editor for MTV Movies Blog. It helps, sure, but we’re talking about the guy who made “Donnie Darko” here. And “Southland Tales.” Isn’t that enough? Not for Kelly it isn’t. His latest brain-twisting tale, “The Box,” hits theaters on November 6. And he has a dynamite week of content planned for y’all, so sit back and enjoy!

I first met Cameron Diaz on the set of “Charlie’s Angels” in the spring of 2000. I was being escorted into Drew Barrymore’s trailer by her producing partner Nancy Juvonen – at the time, I was there to convince Drew to play the English teacher in my crazy little script called “Donnie Darko.”

Cut to October of 2001, at the premiere for “Donnie Darko” at the Egyptian Theater in Los Angeles – guess who showed up? Cameron Diaz.

I was shocked to see a huge star hanging out at the meager after party for a little independent film that had flopped at Sundance – there wasn’t even an open bar. But Cameron didn’t care, she was there to support the film and Drew . . . she stayed most of the night and even though we never spoke to one another (I was too shy to re-introduce myself) – her presence meant a lot to me.

Flash forward to the summer of 2005 – we are pulling an insane 18-hour day on the set of “Southland Tales” on the Santa Monica pier. Justin Timberlake was there and we were shooting what has become the most famous scene in the film – his big musical number with the dancing Marilyn Monroe nurses to the tune of The Killers song “All These Things That I’ve Done.”

Cameron arrived sometime just before midnight to visit Justin – and stayed until we finally wrapped at sunrise. She stuck it out with us, and seemed to really enjoy just hanging around on the set with all of the crew and watching the process unfold.Which brings us to “The Box” (opening November 6!). Getting to work with her on this felt like it was meant to be. The experience could not have been more perfect, and I feel blessed to be so fortunate to have an actress of her caliber in our film.

Cameron is very observant and thoughtful – she thinks long and hard before she makes any important decisions. It was clear that she knew exactly what she was doing every step of the way. She never once complained about a single thing during a long, emotional shoot in sub-arctic blizzard conditions.

I feel fortunate to have worked with both Cameron and Drew, who are consummate professionals — these are two of the most successful and well-adjusted women I know . . . incredibly supportive, kind and appreciative of everyone on the set and around them.I know I’m biased as the filmmaker behind the movie, but Cameron’s performance in “The Box” is extraordinary. I can’t wait for people to witness her transformation into Norma Lewis.

Cameron Diaz’s Mask Cover Up

Cameron Diaz nearly missed her big break in ‘The Mask’ as she felt too bloated to wear a sexy dressThe 37-year-old actress said that she nearly didn’t audition for the part of Tina alongside Jim Carrey in the 1994 film because she had her period and didn’t feel confident enough to wear a sexy dress.

She said: “I woke up on the morning of my audition for the part of Tina and was on my period, feeling bloated and not particularly sexy and not wanting to put on some tight dress.

“So I went and read for the part of the reporter instead. That was all trousers and jacket.

‘The Box’ star Cameron now earns around $50million a film, but said she is lucky to have had a start at all.She said: “I was incredibly fortunate that they liked me and asked me to come back and read as Tina. If they hadn’t, who knows?

“I was unknown and they had plenty of actresses who they wanted for the part.”

Cameron Diaz in ‘What Women Want’ Sequel

Cameron DiazCameron Diaz is attached to star in What Men Want, a sequel of sorts to 2000’s What Women Want starring Mel Gibson.

Pajiba, who seems to be on fire lately with the exclusives, reports that Diaz is tentatively set for the lead role while the script is completed. Pete Chiarelli (The Proposal) is writing the screenplay.

The Gibson movie, which also starred Helen Hunt, made $374 million worldwide and is still the second largest romantic comedy of all time in the U.S. (behind My Big Fat Greek Wedding).

Though further details are unknown at this point, it will likely be the original’s premise with a little gender-reversal.  Lightning strikes and suddenly Diaz can hear men’s thoughts and understand what they want.  How she’ll be able to leave the house without being greeted by a cacophony of “you” and other lewd ideas remains to be seen.

In addition to this, there’s also a movie titled What Boys Want in early development.  Selena Gomez is set to star.
