For legal reasons, writer and director Roger Kumble had to ask all of the actresses auditioning for Cecile how old they were, because of a sex scene between the character and Sebastian in the movie. "So we were bringing in all of these people", he recalled to Cosmopolitan, "and they were all good, but I remember Selma (Blair) came in and I said, 'How old are you?' And she goes (in Cecile's bratty voice) 'How old are you?' And she was so obnoxious, and I couldn't get it out of my head."
Columbia Pictures wanted Katie Holmes to play Annette Hargrove, but writer and director Roger Kumble didn't think she had enough strength of character for the role. Ryan Phillippe was already signed on as Sebastian Valmont when Kumble asked about his girlfriend, Reese Witherspoon. "So, basically, we took Reese out to dinner to get her drunk, and we ended up getting drunk," Kumble revealed in 2014. "And I literally got down on my knees and begged her: 'Please, it'll be fifteen days, you'll be great.'" Witherspoon agreed.
The movie was originally called "Cruel Inventions," but test audiences thought that made it sound like a science fiction film, so the name changed before it was released.
The final straw in snagging Christine Baranski, who only had to work three days, was that her daughters were big Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997) fans and were giddy that she could work with Sarah Michelle Gellar.
Writer and director Roger Kumble was inspired by Welcome to the Dollhouse (1995). He felt he had never seen anything like it, "so dark," "fucked up high school." It quickly led him to the thought of doing a new adaptation of "Les Liaisons Dangereuses," but set in high school.
"Sebastian: You amaze me. Kathryn: Eat me, Sebastian! It's okay for guys like you and Court to fuck everyone. But when I do it, I get dumped for innocent little twits like Cecile. God forbid, I exude confidence and enjoy sex. Do you think I relish the fact that I have to act like Mary Sunshine 24/7 so I can be considered a lady? I'm the Marcia fucking Brady of the Upper East Side, and sometimes I want to kill myself. So there's your psychoanalysis, Dr. Freud. Now tell me, are you in... or are you out?"
"Sebastian: You spend all your time preaching about waiting for love. Well here it is. Right in front of you, and you're going to turn your back on it. So I guess we're just fucked. I'll move on. But you are going to have to live the rest of your life knowing that you've turned your back on love. And that makes you a hypocrite. Have a nice life."
