#1. The role of Maddie was written for Jennifer Lawrence! In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Gene Stupnitsky shared that the idea for the film came from a real Craigslist ad: "I read it, and I thought, 'This is wild. Who is the woman that answers this ad?' And I thought, 'Oh, that'll be a great role for my friend Jennifer Lawrence."
And in an interview with Total Film he said: "I didn’t know she would do it, but I wrote it for her."

We went and saw a lot of other people – but I was relaxed, because I knew we had Andrew. It was clear, he was always the one.”
