 After initial test audiences had mixed reactions to the ending, a  new version of Will and Violas final scene was filmed in November  1998 (only weeks before release), which expanded upon the previously  brief Twelfth Night projections in order to better handle their  parting. In order to film the scene, Joseph Fiennes (qv) had to  interrupt work on a West End play, and Gwyneth Paltrow (qv) had to  be brought in from filming _Talented Mr. Ripley, The (1999)_ (qv).
