T-b: Jaime Foxx, Michelle Monaghan and director Baran Bo Odar
Director Baran Bo Odar Sleepless has nearly as much crazy action as the French version, Sleepless Night.
The fight scenes between stars, Jaime Foxx and Michelle Monaghan are crazy—they felt like they were out to hurt each other. The stars told us about how they did the scenes and all about the bumps and bruises they got.

For me, it is hard to watch films based on other versions that are made so well already. This version has its own take on the storyline and definitely aimed to the U.S. market.
Knowing that this was director Odar first U.S. film, he did a good job with what he had to work with. He talked to us about the making of the film and future plans. The film also stars Dermot Mulroney, David Harbour, Tip “T.I.” Harris, Scoot McNairy, Gabrielle Union, and Octavius J. Johnson. Sleepless opens January 13. — A.O.
