From a 2015 article in Vanity Fair magazine by Kate Erbland titled “The True Story of Pretty Woman’s Original Dark Ending” we learn that the screenwriter J.F. Lawton had initially crafted a “gritty drama, originally called 3,000” which “was turned into the uber-rom-com Pretty Woman”. Erbland goes on to write, “Lawton’s original script still contains many of the classic beats and scenes that people remember from the final film, including a trip to the opera, a series of bad shopping experiences, and that fancy dinner with the kind-hearted businessman whose company he [Gere’s character, Edward] is trying to raid. The characters are mostly the same...But the tone and ending are completely different, and it’s mostly a relief when Vivian and Edward don’t end up together, even though the story ends on a decidedly down note. 3,000 ends with Kit [Vivian’s best friend] and Vivian on a bus bound for Disneyland.” This script offers fans of Pretty Woman a glimpse into the often circuitous route film development can take
