'Fatal Attraction' was released in 1987 and became a classic, with an updated reboot recently premiering on Paramount +. Here are some behind-the-scenes secrets from set.

While the movie isn't based on a true story, there are elements of the story that were pulled from situations screenwriter James Dearden experienced in his life or saw his friends experience.

A few years prior to making"Fatal Attraction," Dearden wrote a short film called"Diversion," with a plot very similar to what would go on to become the famous movie. One of the producers, Stanley R. Jaffe, saw"Diversion," and immediately approached Dearden about making it into a feature length film. In February 2021, Paramount announced a TV show reboot of the movie, starring Lizzy Caplan as Alex Forrest, Joshua Jackson as Dan Gallagher and Amanda Peet as Beth Gallagher.

He somehow managed to charm producers Jaffe and Lansing into giving him the role, remaining loyal to the project during periods of uncertainty when directors kept changing. In the end, Close went on to earn her fourth Academy Award nomination for her part in the movie, as well as a Golden Globe Award nomination.To get into the headspace of her character, Close gave herself a backstory outside what was in the script.
