[I just looked it up on IMDB and apparently the part was first offered to a Korean actress. Maybe no one acts in Japan.]

Universal didn't seem to care much that a Texan played Bridget Jones to the very loud protests of some Brits.
I heard today that they're doing their annual reenactment of the Battle of Trafalger on it's 200th anniversary today, but because the French and the Brits are friends now they've decided to have a Red Fleet and a Blue Fleet. Lord Nelson's great-great-great-grandaughter said it's stupid. I agree.
