The Notebook - Casting Rachel McAdams

[onlyRBO]

I love this movie. And the book... The actors are perfect and Nicholas Sparks is so amazing..

[onlyRBO]

Wow.I am emotionally touched

[rockisbetter]

wow she is great, this must be a very cool and fun profession, a lil crazy though

[MrsClassy09]

THAT WAS AMAZING!!!!!

[missSTACEY291]

wow, this is crazy, ahe can pull of sadness etc (the notebook) and act like the biggest bitch in meengirls, she is amazing, absolutly amazing!

[726jigglypuff]

She is one of the most beautiful & best actresses in Hollywood & yet so underrated but at the same time one of the most sought after. LOL! Rachel McAdams is nothing short of amazing. that is why she has been my favourite actress from the moment I saw her in 'Red Eye'.

[sarahflyy]

I almost cried right now, watching this audition.. sigh

[innulja]

where's the part where he says I want all of you?

[embomb1991]

wasn't an audition. it was a screen testing.

she's still amazing, but she had had time to work on the part

[xxfcKncLubh3adxx]

damn. she really was made for the part! what an amazing audition! really gotta put your heart and soul into it! i love rachel mcadams. such an amazing actress! <3

[SHIBBYiPANDA]

why would he say the thing about the money??? There's no way he could actually think that.. lol..

[PsychLion]

It's almost like it's real lol

[bhoustonindustries]

Love this! Love her!

[mpg895]

they make me proud to be canadian! :)

[gracezm95]

Lover her <3

[zygmunttrzy]

I just love this, that watching her I don't have an impression that she only pretends, like it happens sometimes in other's playing..

[KMurphyallthetime]

I cant decide if I like this audition or the actual movie's version better. They're both so powerful! Amazing.

[i3musiic12]

wow. just wow.

[mcrobsessed247]

great actress!

[chiwawalova2121]

She's so talented! She's my idol! ♥

[hcmontessori]

I love how she's got dimples that just show up out of nowhere. She's so cute. ^_^

[wintensity]

she's very good, one of the best for sure

[jbug444]

this even makes me cry lol shes great

[StefMatz91]

WOW! she was friggin awesome!!!

[mmhstalker23]

damn shes good

[xSneakyyx]

Rachel really doesn't get the credit she deserves as an actor. I've never seen her perform a role less than flawlessly.

[DanaSahaj]

@xSneakyyx I agree with you totally she isn't as big as she should be probably because she has class and doesn't like Jolie steal other peoples husbands or do plastic surgery like Megan Fox pssht.. LOVE RACHEEEL ! <3

[livvy066]

is ryan reading??

[mjbab73]

@livvy066 Yeah, that's him.

[lmfaoxx]

I've watched this video many many times before and I just now noticed, when she says "out" her Canadian accent peeks through :) Anyone else notice?

[1CLKL]

She worked at Mcdonalds when she was younger. For those who think that working at fast food restaurants are lame and such are wrong, Brad Pitt also, advertised for a fast food restaurant in a chicken suit. Success starts off from 'somewhere'.

ANYWAYS! If this wasn't true passion and acting, I don't know what is.

[SweetMissBisou]

Whoa, this isn't even the movie itself and I'm crying.

[blink0o0]

such a good actor............ryan too!!

[MaxKyle83]

@9008igor thats definately no "mistake".... its called: Inner conflict. The more feelings you really feel and combine the more interesting your acting is.

[Buzz0Killington]

That guy is giving her nothing to work with and she's still great.

[FunkyJunk3191]

wow! this makes me so much more sure that I could never do acting. shes incredible.

[InRegardsToHER]

RIPPED IT!

[909secretmodel]

i look up to rachel. she has a great personality, she's a great actress. and when i practice my acting i always come back to this video because watching her makes me improve on my acting.

[oilersgirl3]

amazing

[Pitoupine]

the guy playing ryan's part sounds a lot like ryan! is it him? btw she did a fantastic audition! great casting!

[Tones009]

@Pitoupine i was wondering the same...if they casted him first, then it probably was him

[Pitoupine]

@Tones009 yeah cause he talks the same as in that exact scene. and his ponctuation and all is the SAME

[Tones009]

@Pitoupine other versions of this video have it tagged as rachel reading lines with ryan, so im pretty sure its him

[1CLKL]

OH MY GOSH!!! WHAT AN AMAZING ACTRESS! HOLY!!! ;D

[rsetske1]

That was just great! Fine actress.

[MagicRos3s]

wow.. she's amazing

[repeatdreaming]

wow great audition, so passionate.. it's like your watching the movie over again, just in a blank setting

[XxRottenMuffinxX]

I don't like the movie really, but her audition for this movie is amazing!!!! <3

[JohnsonKayla12]

a good actress is when your watching that person act, the whole time , you never even think about the fact that its just an act. you just watch it and feel the emotion that they're character is putting off. !

[mayaaisabel]

gotta say this was an amazing love story and WOW to her acting

[daisyxox0]

is that ryan's voice????

[Schmidteren]

@daisyxox0 yes... he must have been cast prior to her, therefore they used him!... Probalby to see if they had a spark you know! :)

[dmlthegreat]

is ryan gosling reading with her or is that a casting person? kind sounds like him...

[OpheliusRex]

15 people must have misread the signal.

[flanissimo]

frightening skills, yes. But the brilliant smile might be even more the thing that puts her at the top of the A list. Sorry Jolie. Sorry Fox.

[BlateroStulidum]

I raped the replay button.

Seriously, how come when it's all professional and wrapped in a movie I'm like "yeah, that was awesome", but a single, uncut audition tape in much poorer quality makes me go "Oh my GOD she's absolutely AMAZING!!" ?

[twilightchick925]

wow



[supaflychick682]

15 people don't know talent!

[dancingxdead]

that's what i call talent.

[MarvyKel]

She is amazing!

[cosovoz]

that voice.. wow, just like she's crying, its amazing

[Charlie241994]

She's an amazing actor, it's very clear to me (and it should be to others) why they picked her.

[Summon256]

Rachel is hundred times more beautiful than Jolie, Aniston and Megan Fox altogether! who agrees thumbs up LOL

[Schmidteren]

@Summon256 agree!

[Horan28]

@Summon256 Ya thats because shes a lady.

[hollyroses]

this looks so old, the hair and the shirt

[kissame104]

This is what you call acting your booty off. Rachel is so talented and I really wish that her and Ryan had stayed together. I still think that she has yet to show the world all she is capable of and this audition tape proves it!

[anjasy]

my god how amazingly she acts..i had chicken skin meanwhile watching her on this casting....natural huge talent!!!

[kc27rulz]

fricken amazing.



[designerproductions]

shes prrro

[Wildchild3003]

thats insane talent right there!

[GoodKnightFilms]

funny how she always looks so different with a different hair colour! haha

[trublinha]

linda

[trublinha]

linda que bela atriz

[SamantheGreat]

WOW

[TheElephant79]

She loves these Castings.

[anewdayproductions]

this is insanely good acting

[xosoccergirlie8]

thtas ryan in the backround i think

[LivTheLife]

wow shes really good

[505mcasias]

She is five kinds of cute.

[inesgarciagao]

oh, she´s good!!

[irena2009]

wow. what an audition!

[trentrolle12]

wow, that performance was amazing!

[pinuki27]

I LOVE HER. and I LOVE this movie. The chemistry they had was just incredible!

[Pitoupine]

is it ryan gosling talking in the back? cause it looks like his voice!!

[wannabefit453]

she looks kinda uglier here...and her acting was kinda fake

[st3phanic]

@wannabefit453 But the movie was great, it just looked and seemed perfect.

[kissame104]

@wannabefit453 what kind of acting are YOU used to because the acting displayed here was definitely oscar material so....

[GreeslyValbuena1]

She was good but I think actors and actresses are better in the movies, in the castings there's a lot of pressure and nervous and they do not give the best of them... in the movie she is way better than this, she is just great! I love them both

[tiburonHD76]

Te amo Raquel!!

[dapeyr]

@tiburonHD76 es mejor Rachel.

[sk8grlk14]

@treloyuppicampfans It's called Immortals it's with Mickey Rourke, Freida Pinto, and Kellan Lutz.

[Tom6093]

I wonder if she's from the South. She's got the Southern Bell Trates

[willowtip123456789]

@Tom6093 She is a Canadian actress from London ON

[Tom6093]

@willowtip123456789 Lol. I guess I'm a bad judge of  character. Couldn't have been more wrong. She's beautiful and plays the part awesomely.

[Twilight19922008]

@Tom6093 she's canadian

[erincarnaudrey]

her voice breaks as she says her lines, it's very convincing :)

lovely lady.

[Aaaymee]

shes amazing. brilliant audition. shes really natural. her emotion isnt forced

[qmamzmwm]

why am i feeling like embarrassing someone's casting video..

[angelsky91502]

@qmamzmwm 'cause that's how real it feels

[SimlishSammy]

I can't help looking at her natural beauty.

[Beca95ns]

@SimlishSammy she had a nose job

[SimlishSammy]

@Beca95ns

So? Compare her face to her high school pic. You could barely tell the difference.

[sk8grlk14]

@treloyuppicampfans Damn that process was not easy but I finally got the part. YAY!!!!!!!

[rwqs2432]

Esta mina la embarro!

[thricegod1288]

i would give anything to be with her.......Anything.

[lovelyliv2010]

my english teacher knows her!!! she says that they we're best friends in college and they still hang out!!! man thats exciting lol! i know someone who knows someone famous!! aha shes great!

[MissSai99]

Wow!! What an amazing screen test!!! She's brilliant!! If I was the director I would have cast her on the spot for sure. Wonderful!!

[adancegurl9]

wow so much emotion!!!! she deserved the part!!!

[StefaniSamacOfficial]

She is an amazing actress.

[sexiiTaylorxo]

she's amazing. i love her.

[sk8grlk14]

@treloyuppicampfans awe!!! Thanx!

[bladesofglory12]

@treloyuppicampfans same here. i would be a nervous wreck. follow your dream anyways.

[sk8grlk14]

@treloyuppicampfans Haha thanx and you too. Ahhh so nervous I have an audition Sunday. Wish me luck!!!

[sk8grlk14]

@treloyuppicampfans Same here

[shinthong123]

why does she keep smiling....

[Liahona3580]

@shinthong123 Torn between being happy and emmotional. They were crazy in love with each other. So it was mixed emmotion.

[southernchick48]

gosh shes amazing :)

[harmoniaSINGS]

Her screen test for the notebook was purely amazing. Her acting is so natural and beautiful.

[vonster83]

Still wearing her purse in the audition

Acting not at all affected.....

[iallwayswin0100]

i hate the way when they cast ppl the person talking to them always trys to act but they fail

[AquaOliver123]

is Ryan the one talking back at her? or is it some random dude?

[RLviddy]

@AquaOliver123 It sounds like him.

[southernchick48]

@AquaOliver123 no there is a resemblence but it couldnt be

[fifiefakk]

ok she just made me insanely nervous for my future acting career! with talent like that around i dont stand a chance! still jealousy aside she is amazing!

[dantheman108]

i love her so much so so sooo much

[xoShanniGummyxo]

She is such a greta actress :)

[Carolinnita]

greattttttttttttttttttttttt

[GosipGirlie]

glad she got the part but in this it looks like she wants to laugh at the wrong times

[missohara84]

She is brilliant! When you're watching a film you forget that you can enjoy it because of people like RM. Because they make it believable. It is her that pulls people into another world. Great respect for all talented actors. Cos it's only when you see them auditioning or rehearsing and you spot real tears in their eyes that you know how much talent and work doing what they do takes.

[malyak]

My God she is one talented young woman! This is incredible!

[GarrettHedlundsBabe]

Fing talented Courteous & Gorgeous

y cant there be more actresses like her

[ipksb1]

wow .. after seeing that i respect her as an actress awhole lot more, thats pure talent im so glad she got the part

[LALAstupidz]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[casiesilverman]

wow.. i'm about to take acting but i dont think i can be this incredible!!!

[misterfreehugs]

@casiesilverman i don't think you have to take a class. just go with your gut instinct to an audition, play pretend, and be ready to do crying scenes xD

[giannalexandra]

OMG... Not that I doubted her talent before... But WOW... this video definitely reinforced the fact that she is an amazing actress... I was blown away.

[MisssDevyn456]

Holy crapppp.

I've never seen this movie before.

And that was fricken incredible.

[nblack02]

incredible

[john9944]

This is a great post.  I think that she is brilliant. She is the new standard. I cant wait for her next performance.

[lilahlove10]

I love her soo much. She is my favorite actress. <3

[bestozesto]

this movie deserves all the oscars in the world...why such movies are so rare these days?

[LarsonMimi]

is this Ryan Gossling casting with her??

[cara1988]

she is such a heart breakingly brilliant actress, i will never understand how she can cry and still have a smile on her face. pure talent. the film would have been nothing with different leading actors, rachel and ryan were just the perfect people for the roles. such amazing casting. I love everything about this film. And I love how both rachel and ryan clearly just love acting, they are never in trashy magazines trying to get attention, they just act, and the passion in acting is so clear 5*

[tritile]

She's amazing!

[0xindependent23x0]

i cant imagine what the movie would be with a different leading actress

shes sensational

[cutiepatricia14]

shes awesome i wish that when im older ill be like her!! shes one of the reasons i want to be an actress!!! :D

[steppedat]

GOSHHHH!!!!!!! i <3 Rachel McAdams

[bitesizebratt]

the scene in the movie is not as good as that one.

[MaxnMem]

omg! she is just amazing! Rachel Mcadams is like my new idol!!!

[supergurl30]

wow even without the set and the music and all the ambience created by directors/producers you can still feel all the emotion in this scene because they act so well together!

[aampow]

I wish I hadn't watched this, because now I'm putting on the DVD and it's 2am... She's just too good and this film is amazing!

[neha705]

@aampow I know! Same, I'm watching it right noww!

[gurl9300]

Brilliant and beautiful.

[anumber8]

i love how she still has her purse on her shoulder...

[Aleneden]

This is AMAZING!

[dumblonde1993]

Who's reading with her?

Is it Ryan?

[cfed068]

she is a phenomenal actress. definitely one of my favorites for sure :)

[tasmia7]

Amazing! wow!!! She is the best actress out there!

[thisoneitis]

She's awesome, I love Rachel Mcadams, one of the best actress of this generation

[Soumsi01]

that was just... epic! brilliant performance!! she's my idol - she reminds me of meryl streep. she's got that cleverness!

[HoneyLust90]

She's so perfect!

[LilShortyr888]

i love rachel<3

one of my favorite actresses. she's so gorgeous, talented, &pure.

[tuongyen]

wonderful!

[martapuma]

i love her

[Bri5780]

I like how they changed the script from rehearsel day to filming day. Such as they didn't have that line "I want all of you, Forever, You and Me everyday." and "What do you want ? What do you want? WHAT DO YOU WANT? God Damn what do you want!?"

[McAwEsOmE119]

this wasn't rehearsal day it was a really rough version of the script so that explains why it sounds kind of rough

[90mloda]

is this the actual casting video? omg this movie is the best and shes awesome so happy shes an alumini of my uni :)

[snowhite55]

She is just wonderful.. with so much passion!!

[hannahhify]

superb superb superb...and such an inspiration!

[soulchild180]

She got so into this!!!

[eric632]

glad she got the part. movie wouldn't have been the same without her.
