Richard Gere Unveils ‘Pretty Woman’ Secrets at Venice Film Festival Masterclass

Veteran actor shares behind-the-scenes stories and discusses upcoming father-son project at Cartier-hosted event

At a recent masterclass event in Venice, veteran actor Richard Gere shared behind-the-scenes stories from his illustrious film career spanning decades. Now 73 years old, Gere sat down to discuss some of his most memorable roles with fans who came to celebrate his birthday and learn more about the filmmaking process.

One role he focused on was Julian in “Pretty Woman.” During a showing of the famous piano scene with co-star Julia Roberts, Gere admitted there was real “chemistry” between them. However, he revealed the scene was never planned – it emerged from improvisation after the director suggested exploring his character. This unexpected moment added new depth, allowing Roberts’ character to see Julian differently.

Gere also described his character as “criminally underwritten” at first, meant only to look good. But the piano scene demonstrated a “mysterious yearning and maybe damaged quality” that expanded him. The actor enjoyed exploring characters in an organic way versus strictly following scripts.

Besides “Pretty Woman,” Gere discussed working with legendary Japanese director Akira Kurosawa on “Rhapsody in August.” As someone of Japanese heritage himself, Gere found the role culturally challenging. He tried appearing visibly Japanese until Kurosawa assured him through a translator that wasn’t necessary.

Looking ahead, Gere will star opposite Michael Fassbender in a remake of French spy series “Le Bureau des Legendes.” He is also developing a father-son story with his own son, who attended the event. The masterclass provided a rare opportunity for fans to gain insight into Gere’s filmmaking perspectives and choices over his long, still-evolving career.
