Jason Schwartzman didn’t realise until he was cast as songwriter Richard M. Sherman in Saving Mr Banks how familiar he was with his work.
“If you had asked me a week before being cast who the Sherman Brothers are, I’m embarrassed to say that I wouldn’t be able to say who they are,” Schwartzman says. “Then I realised I knew so much of their work. I knew Mary Poppins. I knew a lot of their other songs. Musically speaking, I was very familiar with them.”
