The singer flew to South Africa for one week to film the movie in Cape Town and Johannesburg. Swift wore a brown wig for her role as Rosemary, daughter of The Giver (Jeff Bridges).

“We just tried to make her distinctive and un-Taylor-like,” the film’s director Phillip Noyce said At “The Giver” premiere.

“Being vulnerable comes very naturally to her because she’s a conduit of emotions in her work. So she just has to go to the place, as I kept reminding her, that she goes to when she writes.”

I’ve spent a lot of time with her, and she had just been looking to dip her toe slightly in acting…”
