A source revealed to National Enquirer magazine that Shiloh's inclusion in the movie was actually accidental after the twin sisters hired to take turns playing the daughter of Cate Blanchett's character "wouldn't settle down." Upon learning this situation, Pitt quickly came to an idea to put Shiloh in as replacement.

"She's a natural," the source commented on the ten-month-old girl. "Shiloh did her scenes perfectly and was giggling and happy throughout her big day."
