Romantic sparks fly once again on screen as Richard Gere and Diane Lane reunite for their third movie together, the romantic drama 'Nights in Rodanthe.' And "The Insider"'s own Cheryl Woodcock has the happy pair all to herself! When it came to shooting the movie's love scene Cheryl asked Gere just how many takes does a scene like that require?  Gere said, "As many takes as we can have!" First co-starring  in 'The Cotton Club' in 1984 and then 18 years later in 'Unfaithful,' Gere and Lane re-unite for  'Rodanthe,' the story of a married mother (Lane) who travels to a tiny North Carolina coastal town to escape her personal demons. Tending to a friend's inn for the weekend, she finds herself weathering a major storm with an enticing doctor (Gere) -- and igniting a romance that could change their lives forever. The two first met when Diane was 18 and they  say their latest movie requires that same chemistry they found all those years ago. "There's no way this film ['Nights in Rodanthe'] would work if we couldn't pull off what we have to do as actors together," Richard says.  'Nights in Rodanthe' hits theaters September 26.
