3 words prompted Richard Gere to accept the role in "Pretty Woman". What did Julia Roberts say?

When director Garry Marshall sent Gere the script, the actor wasn’t thrilled with the story. He judged the character of Edward Louis empty and uninteresting. The director did his best to persuade the stubborn actor: he promised a fabulous fee, offered to change the plot. But all was in vain. Then Garry Marshall sent the attractive Julia Roberts to Richard Gere, hoping that she could melt the heart of the stubborn actor.

The two spent the entire evening talking, and Richard began to doubt his decision. When he got home, he found a note that Julia had snuck into his pocket. “Please say yes,” the piece of paper said.

His clever trick worked and Geer accepted the role. The film became a box office hit and received countless nominations for various prestigious awards, ranging from the “Oscar” and ending with the “Golden Globe”.
