• Michelle Williams and Marion Cotillard were considered for the lead female role, which ultimately went to Sienna Miller.
• In 2008, David Fincher was slated to direct the film, with Keanu Reeves in the lead role. Fincher left the project in 2010.
• In 2007, the script appeared on the so-called “Black List” – a list of the most promising screenplays that never made it to the screen.
• Ten years ago, Bradley Cooper played exactly the same character in the TV series “Kitchen Secrets.”
• Bradley Cooper claims that filming took place in real kitchens with blazing ovens and sharp knives. Moreover, chefs were cast in minor roles in the cooking scenes, which had a very positive effect on the actors, but also kept them on edge.
• As a child, Bradley Cooper dreamed of becoming an actor or a chef. In this film, actor Cooper played a chef.
• Jamie Dornan starred in a two-minute scene that did not make the final cut of the film. The scene concerned the past of Sienna Miller's character. The audience did not like the scene during preview screenings, and it was cut from the final edit of the film.
• Bradley Cooper and Sienna Miller starred together in the film "Sniper" (2014). They began filming "Chef Adam Jones" several months after finishing work on "Sniper".
• Commenting on a demonstration reel of upcoming films at the Cannes Film Festival, producer Harvey Weinstein told reporters that he had offered Alicia Vikander a role in "Chef Adam Jones" because he had always liked her acting. (It should be noted that there were no roles available at that point.) Weinstein predicted a great future for the actress in Hollywood. Vikander had already starred in the romantic story "Tulip Fever" produced by "Weinstein Company," which was scheduled for release next year.
• Derek Cianfrance was chosen as the film's director in 2013, but he left the project and was replaced by John Wells.
• Upon completion of filming, chef Marcus Wareing stated that Sienna Miller demonstrated the best culinary skills.
• Bradley Cooper stated that the central scene of the film would not have been possible with Sienna Miller if it hadn't been for their collaborative experience in the film "American Sniper" (2014).
• The image of Adam Jones was based on world-renowned chefs Gordon Ramsay, Marco Pierre White, Marcus Wareing, and Clare Smyth. In particular, the tirades in the kitchen are a distinctive feature of Ramsay.
• In 2007, the screenplay ended up on the so-called “Black List” – a list of the most promising screenplays that never made it to the screen.
• Ten years ago, Bradley Cooper played exactly the same character in the TV series "Kitchen Secrets".
