Clara McGregor Explains What It's Really Like to Work with Her Father Ewan McGregor
23Hollywood may be brimming with films that center around contentious father-daughter relationships, but only Bleeding Love has a real-life father-daughter duo serving up that familial drama to the masses. Penned by Ruby Caster, but born out of a story concept by Clara McGregor and her producing partner Vera Bulder, Bleeding Love is a heart-wrenching story about a father (Ewan McGregor) reconnecting with his estranged daughter (Clara McGregor) after she overdoses, and the road trip they embark on as he secretly drives her to rehab. While the film may be fraught with heightened emotions, screaming matches, and tears, my conversation with the pair of McGregors was all laughs and smiles.
The father-daughter duo joined me over Zoom a few hours after they received a sweet surprise message from Leona Lewis on the Today Show, whose iconic song "Bleeding Love" was an inspiration for the film's title and a pivotal scene in the film. Somehow, "Bleeding Love" became the anthem of family road trips for a lot of millennials in the mid-aughts, including myself, which is precisely why I asked the McGregors about the song's inclusion in the film and what it was like to pull inspiration from their own lives.
