Miffy Englefield was just six years old when she was propelled to fame playing Jude’s on-screen daughter Sophie, alongside the rest of the cast, including Cameron Diaz and Jack Black.

In the film, Kate Winslet and Cameron Diaz’s characters swap homes for the holidays and both found love.

But Miffy has revealed what it was like behind the scenes thanks to her dad, who kept a folder of her time on the film so she could look back on it when she was older.

The Holiday star shared there were some scenes and scripts that didn’t make it into the film.

She revealed her dad had printed out everything for her to keep from her audition logs to her scripts on set.

Miffy shared the first script they got which introduced Jude Law‘s daughters and revealed why hers were highlighted and had pen marks all over.

She explained: “These lines in between the script is because I used to speak too fast, so they had to remind me to breathe.”

Not only that, but there were also some lines cut from the film including during the famous hot chocolate and Mr Napkin scene.

In the film, Amanda was meant to say that she couldn’t have marshmallows with her drink as she was avoiding carbs so she wouldn’t “get fat”.

But the line was cut from the film.

There was even a whole scene that was slashed from the film which featured Jude Law going to a cafe with his children.

Miffy added: “Here is a whole deleted scene that we filmed in a cafe.”

It seems the clip was to take place after Christmas Day when Cameron’s character Amanda was supposed to go back to LA.

Instead, she stays in the village and bumps into the family in a cafe and joins them for lunch.
