The Departed

Here’s another stroke of genius from Jack Nicholson. He played the character Frank Costello in The Departed opposite Leonardo DiCaprio who was cast as Billy Costigan. At one point, Frank points a gun at Billy and the latter expresses complete shock. The reaction was genuine— Nicholson kept DiCaprio in the dark for this very reason!

Gal Gadot and Chris Pine both improvised during the boat scene. When Pine was interviewed by Entertainment Weekly, he only had good things to say about her performance: “She’s delivering lines like, ‘My father is Zeus’ – shit that is just so ridiculous. And she has to say it with a straight face, with a certain amount of innocence and earnestness. I get to react like any human being would to hearing something as ridiculous as that. So I had it easy.”
