Aus Head in the Clouds, Filmmakers, About the Production

【2004年9月17日全米公開時の Premiere - Head in the Clouds の子記事によれば、当初主役ギルダ役に予定されていたN.ポートマンが12月、土壇場で降板。代役捜しで撮影開始が2ヶ月延期。タイプは違うが、キャラクターの想定年齢に近いC.セロンに決定。

... The film reportedly nearly collapsed last December when Natalie Portman, who was set to play Gilda, withdrew herself - and her star power - from the project. Portman's rep says the actress left because of creative differences. Duigan says that "maybe she ultimately wasn't confident that the part was for her." Shooting was delayed for two months as the producers scrambled for a replacement. "Charlize is a very different actress," Duigan says, "and closer to the age of the character as I had originally conceived it.”
