Matthew Lawrence Says Sally Field Was a Mother Figure on the Set of ‘Mrs. Doubtfire’

Matthew Lawrence has recalled filming the 1993 comedy “Mrs.

Doubtfire” with Sally Field and Robin Williams.

He played one of the children of Field’s character, Miranda, and Williams’ character, Daniel.

In the film, Daniel disguises himself as a nanny to spend time with his children after separating from Miranda.

Lawrence said the cast spent time getting to know one another before rehearsals, and that Field became like another mother to him.

He was 12 during filming and said Field and the other adult actors treated him with care and respect.

Lawrence described the set as a family unit and the experience as a rare one.

He has occasionally run into Field in the decades since the film premiered and said she remains great.
