Claire Scanlon: The Making of The Love Hypothesis | Off The Shelf

What happens when you turn one of BookTok’s biggest romances into a movie? This week on Off The Shelf, Morgann sits down with director Clare Scanlon to chat about directing The Love Hypothesis. Clare shares what she learned from editing The Office, how she captured Glen Powell and Zoey Deutch’s chemistry in Set It Up, and what eventually led her down the rabbit hole of Star Wars Fan Fiction. She takes us behind the scenes of adapting the book, from bringing fan-favourite moments to life and balancing Adam’s character to filming the movie’s intimate scenes. Plus, Claire reveals the scene that made her realize they officially “had a movie.” CHAPTERS: 00:00 Intro & Welcome 02:09 What The Office Taught Clare About Directing 04:22 The Secret Behind Jim & Pam’s Slow Burn 07:42 How Set It Up Came Together 10:10 Creating Glen Powell & Zoey Deutch’s Chemistry 15:13 Taking On The Love Hypothesis 18:21 Bringing The Book’s Biggest Moments To Screen 21:25 Changes From Book To Movie 23:56 Finding The Right Adam Carlsen 26:03 The Pressure Of Adapting A Book Fans Love 27:30 The Reality of Filming The Intimate Scenes 30:18 What Is A Nudity Rider? 32:50 The Scene That Made Claire Know They “Had A Movie” 33:33 What She Hopes Fans Take From The Movie FOLLOW US: Morgann Book TikTok:   / morgannbook   Instagram:   / morgannbook   YouTube:    / morgannbook   Goodreads:   / morgannbook   Claire Scanlon Instagram:   / clairescanlon   Off The Shelf Instagram:   / offtheshelf.podcast   TikTok:   / offtheshelf.podcast   YouTube:    / @off.theshelfpodcast   Hosted by: Morgann Book Created by: Bookish Media, Morgann Book, and Thomas Johnston Executive Producers: Morgann Book & Thomas Johnston Associate Post Producer and Editor: Ricki Biramontes
