So, here are some facts I really liked. I translated all of them from Hebrew to English.

1#-
When they offered the role of Alicia Floric to Julianna Margulies in "The Good Wife" series, it was made clear to her that the character should appear on the screen with smooth hair. Julianne, who is remembered as the curly nurse Carol Hathaway of the ER, vehemently refused to smooth her curly hair because she was afraid to destroy its natural texture.
That's why she bought a wig for $ 10,000 (!!) and in every part of the series she appears wearing a wig on her head.

In the filming of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, director Alfonso Cuarón asked the three leading actors Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint to write a first-person autobiographical essay on the characters they played, to see how well they knew the characters.
Rupert Grint who played Ron Weasley did not submit the essay. When Cuarón asked Grint why he did not submit it, Grint replied, "I'm Ron, Ron would not have done it." He knew Grent had understood his character.
