10 Things I Hate About Life is a cancelled/unfinished 2012 American romantic comedy film directed and written by Gil Junger and starring Evan Rachel Wood, Thomas McDonell and Billy Campbell.

Cast

Production

On May 9, 2012 it was announced that Gil Junger would direct the film from his own script, with Intandem Films and Mad Chance Productions producing the film; Andrew Lazar, who produced the original 10 Things I Hate About You in 1999, would re-assume that role for this film.[5] Vision Films acquired the distribution rights to the film.[6]

Casting

On May 9, 2012 Hayley Atwell was added to the cast of the film to star as lead.[5] On November 14, 2012 Evan Rachel Wood joined the film to play the lead role.[1] On November 30, 2012 Élodie Yung joined to star along with Wood.[3] On January 14, 2013 Billy Campbell also joined the cast of the film.[2]

Filming

The shooting was set to start in November 2012 in Los Angeles.[5] However, shooting actually commenced a month later, on December 17, 2012, in LA,[7] where Wood was spotted on the set during the filming.[8] Wood was again spotted during filming on January 6, 2013 in Malibu, after taking a Christmas break.[9] On January 14, 2013, THR reported shooting as still being underway in LA.[2]

However, in late February 2013, it was announced, at the same time that the film's produce, Gary Smith, was stepping down from his position as CEO of Intandem Films, that filming for 10 Things I Hate About Life was to be put on hold,[10] although the company said this was not because of Smith's departure, but rather due to Evan Rachel Wood's pregnancy,[11] and that filming would resume that September,[11] or some time in the second half of the year.[10]

After several months of no shooting reports or announcements, on November 7, 2013 it was announced that filming would re-commence after a several-month break on December 11 in and around Los Angeles and Malibu, and that it would be wrapped up by April 2014.[6] Vision Films released some photos from the film on November 11, 2013.[12]

In June 2014, Variety reported that Wood was being sued for $30 million by the producers for allegedly refusing to continue working on the film. Wood's lawyers dismissed the suit as "preposterous" and stated that Wood stopped working on the production after producers failed to pay her.[13]
