Kristen Wiig says her IVF journey was “such a struggle”. The ‘Bridesmaids’ actress, 50, tried the technique to conceive before she and her actor husband Avi Rothman, 46, had their now four-year-old twins Shiloh and Luna in 2020 via surrogate, and said even though she now loves being a mum the road to getting there was traumatic. She told The Hollywood Reporter: “It was such a struggle. When you go through (IVF), you meet other people who are going through it, and it’s almost like this secret little... the whispering conversation at a party. “It feels like not a lot of people talk about it.” Th...

The 69-year-old movie producer - whose filmography includes ‘Girl Most Likely’, ‘Filth’ and ‘Ten Thousand Saints’ - was hit by a bakery van as she crossed the road when she was just two years old, and the collision left her with severe facial injuries that required plastic surgery up until the age of 18.

Leslie Jones received death threats over her female-led 'Ghostbusters' movie. The 56-year-old actress - who starred in Kevin Feig's movie alongside Kate McKinnon, Kristen Wiig and Melissa McCarthy - has blasted Jason Reitman's response to the 2016 film when he released 'Ghostbusters: Afterlife' in 2021, as well as the public fallout from it.

Rose Byrne found it "weird" working with mostly all women on 'Bridesmaids'. The 44-year-old Australian actress starred as the snooty and over-the-top bridesmaid Helen Harris III in the 2011 rom-com classic, alongside Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolph, Melissa McCarthy, Wendi McLendon-Covey, Ellie Kemper, Rebel Wilson, and more. And it was one of few productions that was female-dominated of its time. Speaking on the 'SmartLess' podcast, she said: "It was one of those jobs where I had no idea that it would become such a beloved film at all. It was like a midsize film. "It was weird acting with that man...

Melissa McCarthy would jump at the chance to make a 'Bridesmaids' sequel. The 52-year-old actress played Megan Price in the 2011 comedy and even if she has to wait for decades for a follow-up movie, she'd be thrilled if writers Annie Mumolo and Kristen Wiig - who had the lead role of Annie Walker - asked her to make another.

He said: "I always say nobody ever sets out to make a bad movie. But, every movie you're on people are like, 'Oh, this is going to be gr...

Paul Feig found the criticism of 'Ghostbusters' "hard to absorb". The 59-year-old director helmed the 2016 female-led reboot of the classic flick – which featured Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones in the main roles – but the movie flopped and Paul was targeted by trolls on social media for making the film. Feig told The Hollywood Reporter: "It was hard to absorb – and quite an assault for me because I'd always had such a lovely relationship with the internet. It just took me back to grade school and bullies." The 'Last Christmas' director regrets making the movie w...
