Jude Law ‘burst the bubble’ when he spilled filming secrets from his Christmas classic The Holiday on BBC Radio 2.
The actor, 51, shared behind-the-scenes details about the film, which was released in 2006, with host Zoe Ball and comedian Kerry Godliman on Friday.
Jude starred as a widower named Graham who falls in love with Amanda (Cameron Diaz) when she house swaps with Surrey-based journalist Iris (Kate Winslet).
Speaking about the picturesque cottage where Amanda holidays, Kerry asked: ‘Can you Airbnb that cottage?’, while Zoe replied: ‘I think so’, Jude told them the truth.
‘That cottage doesn’t exist. So the director, she’s a bit of a perfectionist, toured that whole area and didn’t quite find the chocolate box cottage she was looking for,’ he revealed.
‘So she just hired a field and drew it and had someone build it. But here’s the funny thing if you watch it.

‘So, we were shooting in the winter here and every time I go in that door, we cut and we shot the interiors in LA about three months later.’
Stunned, Zoe said: ‘We don’t want to hear anymore. We can’t bear it’, while Kerry added: ‘That’s very upsetting’.
Looking sheepish, Jude replied: ‘Just burst the bubble, sorry.’
Back in June, Jude confirmed he would be up for starring in a sequel of The Holiday.
Speaking to E! News at the New York City’s Tribeca Festival, Jude said: ‘I love the idea.’
Although he admitted he would have to ask director and writer Nancy Meyers first, he added: ‘Why not?’
The Holiday told the tale of Surrey-based journalist Iris (Kate Winslet) who swaps homes with Amanda, a movie producer from Hollywood, following respective heartbreaks.
While in Surrey, Amanda finds romance with Iris’s book editor brother, widower Graham while Iris meets Miles (played by Jack Black) and dates him.

Graham is father to children Olivia and Sophie, played by Miffy Englefield and Emma Pritchard.
Graham’s daughter’s also fall in love with Amanda as they accept her into their family.
Despite his on screen daughters being grown up now, Jude believes the plot could still be revisited as he added that he doesn’t believe his character will have changed much.
‘I think Graham still has cardigans and glasses, and reads,’ he joked. ‘He’s probably worried sick about the girls, right? The daughters will be 28, 29.’
