Viggo Mortensen sdělil : "Námět na film ke mně přišel, když jsem letěl z matčina pohřbu. Vzpomínal jsem na matku, na otce, na náš společně strávený čas. Cítil jsem potřebu tyto vzpomínky popsat a začal jsem si zapisovat sérii událostí a rozhovorů z různých etap našeho společného života. Postupně se tyto vzpomínky rozvinuly ve fiktivní příběh, skládající se z rozhovorů a okamžiků, které se ve skutečnosti nestaly, ale umožnily mi přiblížit se k pravé podstatě mých citů vůči mámě a tátovi. Nakonec vznikl příběh otce a syna, o fiktivní rodině s některými rysy společnými s tou mojí,"

Viggo Mortensen told : “And also there were some things — I mean, they straightened most of them out, but I did take Henry to the meeting I had with the director as my sort of good luck charm and guide. In the back of my mind, I was thinking he could learn something, too, because I did let Henry read the script and he goes, ‘This is wrong. That’s not how it is’,”

In the back of my mind I was thinking he could learn something too, because I did let Henry read the script and he goes ‘This is wrong, that’s not how it is.'” Mortensen recalled the director asking if Henry knew the character. “And he goes ‘yeah, but he doesn’t look like this,'” Mortensen added. “And all of a sudden the director is falling all over himself and then the rest of the meeting was him explaining in detail to Henry why he was taking certain liberties. We walked out of there, and Henry asks if he will change the things he told him about, and I say I don’t think so. I’m not going to do it anyway, because I’m not sure I want to be doing this for years, and then a couple of years later I’m doing 3 ‘Lord Of The Rings’ so who knows”. The role eventually went to Hugh Jackman, who has been recognized as having 'the longest career as a live action Marvel superhero.' “I think he did great. I’m sure no one could imagine anyone doing it better than he did anyway,"

Viggo Mortensen recalled ( about David Copperfield ) : “You just had to go up and read something... and I think I was reading the opening page of Dickens’ ‘David Copperfield’ and they kept saying ‘Louder! Louder!’ And I just freaked out. They couldn’t hear me because I was mumbling, and I just closed the book and ran out and said that was the end of that,”
