'Roxanne' became Martin’s biggest hit in years and co-starred Daryl Hannah, who had to be coaxed into taking the role as the romantic lead.
The Hollywood Reporter
Daryl Hannah, then 26, was offered the part of Roxanne Kowalski, a beautiful astronomer who comes to town in search of a passing comet. But Hannah, looking to move away from playing love interests, was reluctant to take it. “Steve and Fred asked me to come in and talk to them about what my reservations were,” recalls Hannah. “I went in and the next thing I know, they walked me right into a cast read-through. I had such a good time, I went with it. And I’m glad I did.
In the film, C.D. falls for Roxanne, but she instead has her eye on a dim-witted fireman hunk named Chris . Thus unfolds a tragicomic series of events in which C.D., a natural poet, feeds romantic lines to Chris via radio headset. Unlike in the original, which ends tragically, inThe Jerk , earning $39 million on a $12 million budget. The film also earned him a WGA Award for best screenplay based on material from another medium., “I believe we’re always the same people. … I don’t care how hip we are, how smart we are, what our new technology is. Everybody is just as prejudiced and just as good and just as evil as they’ve always been. And just as much suckers for romance.”
