Chord Overstreet’s immediate chemistry with Lindsay Lohan

OHMYGOSSIP — Chord Overstreet had “immediate chemistry” with Lindsay Lohan.
The pair co-star in new Netflix romcom ‘Falling For Christmas’ and Chord, 33, loved working with former child star Lindsay, 36.
He said: “I’ve done several table reads, and I’d never really done a table read like that with somebody to where I felt there was immediate chemistry. She was very giving, and it flowed really effortlessly between us. I was like, “Oh, this is gonna be really fun.” As far as my experience on that film, it was one of those things where she couldn’t have been more open and sweet when it was coming to working together, to where it was just a really easy environment. We had the scenes how they were written, and then we both tweaked and worked on them together and tried to make them better.”
However, he admitted that he felt pressure at being part of Lindsay’s first big comeback role.
He said: “I think there’s pressure. You feel pressure with any movie and any project that you do because you want to make it as great as it can be for the fans and for people that are watching the movie — and at the same time real. But I think when we were working together, there was such an openness with both of us that it never felt like there was pressure.”
Chord also revealed that producers originally wanted him to play Lindsay’s fiancé, rather than the romantic lead.
He said: “My agent called me and was like, ‘Would you be down to do a chemistry read with Lindsay for the movie?’ Knowing Lindsay’s pedigree, I was like, ‘That’d be awesome,’ because I think she’s so freaking funny and super talented. I responded to the script because it reminded me in a great way of ‘Overboard’ — I’m a huge rom-com fan. I was like, ‘Oh, I would kill to do something like this.’ Especially with somebody that’s such a pro like Lindsay. Originally, they wanted me to read for the role of Tad, who was the fiancé. I was like, ‘I can do an English accent, but I feel like I’m not gonna be as good as someone who’s actually English. Can I just read for the other role?’ And I read for it and got it.”

Charlene White opens up about Matt Hancock RV controversy

OHMYGOSSIP — Charlene White says it would have been a struggle to remain impartial as a journalist, if she slept in the ‘I’m A Celebrity’ RV with Matt Hancock.
The 42-year-old broadcaster was the first member of the camp to be voted out during this year’s show and in her exit interview on Friday (18.11.22), she explained her controversial choice not to sleep in the RV.
She told hosts Ant and Dec: “I thought it would be really difficult doing my job once I’d spent the night with a politician – not in that way.
“I had to think about the job I do when I get out of her and I didn’t want anyone to think my impartiality would go because I’d slept in the RV with him. And I said I would sleep in the hammock.”
Speaking about disgraced MP Matt’s decision to take part in the reality TV show, she said: “I was surprised and also not surprised, I may be in the jungle but journalism is still my first job and I asked questions I thought the public would want me to. And I had to stay impartial, which was hard.”
However, she insisted she made some good friends on the show, explaining: “It’s been a journey and I absolutely loved living with those guys – they were brilliant.”
Earlier in the episode, Boy George admitted that he was struggling to look past Matt’s behaviour during the COVID 19 pandemic, when he was the Health Secretary.
He said: “Can’t stand Matt. I have tried to like him and I’ve failed. I find him slimy, I find him slippery.”
He added to Matt: “I’ll be honest with you, I think your presence has made everyone very compliant.”
Matt then said: “Compliant … it’s a funny word.”
The pop star subsequently tried to clarify his feelings.
He explained: “I have been hating on you, I have to be honest. I sometimes feel like you don’t say what you mean and you’re not particularly direct.”

Prince William refuses to back a winner for I’m A Celeb

OHMYGOSSIP — Prince William diplomatically refused to back Mike Tindall to win ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’
Although William, 40, is close friends with Mike, who is married to his cousin Zara, he is also friendly with England Lioness Jill Scott, so he opted not to choose sides when questioned recently.
During a visit to RAF Coningsby in Lincolnshire, Corporal Rachael Howes asked William who he wanted to win, telling MailOnline: “I asked him who he wanted to win, Lioness Jill Scott or his relative Mike Tindall.”
She said that William only smiled and replied: “That’s a tricky one.”
Meanwhile, Mike, 44, has been sharing some family secrets on the reality TV show, including how he once accidentally exposed his underwear to his mother-in-law, Princess Anne, after performing an “over-exaggerated” dance move in front of her.
The former England rugby union star told how he had to swiftly walk away after his trousers ripped right in front of the Princess Royal to reveal his boxer shorts, which had the slogan “nibble my nuts” on.
Upon seeing his pants with the message on, the 72-year-old princess said: “I’d rather not.”
Speaking about the unfortunate incident, which occurred after he had performed a “s*** drop” dance move – when someone squats quickly and as low as possible before popping back up – he recalled: “I love a suit.
“My problem with suits is I over exaggerate dancing at weddings … I rip a lot of suits, trousers and stuff.
“The old s*** drop gets me every time. I went to a wedding, ripped a suit, they were like, ‘Oh my God, what are you going to do?’ I was like, ‘Don’t worry I’ve got a spare.’
“They were like, ‘Who brings a spare suit?’ Someone who rips a lot of trousers brings a spare suit.
“Zara had like a 30th birthday, it was a disco, 70s-themed one, I was dancing on the dance floor, I had like flares on, full outfit but it was quite tight, nothing ever fits – rugby player’s bum and legs – so I was dancing with my mother-in-law and I did a s*** drop in front of my mother-in-law.
“Ripped my trousers, straight in front of her. It happened to be that my boxers that I had on at that time said ‘nibble my nuts’.
“As I’ve turned round, she’s gone, ‘I’d rather not.’ I’ve gone, ‘I’m going,’ and walked off.”

Richard Osman’s Goodwood wedding

OHMYGOSSIP — Richard Osman’s upcoming wedding will take place at Goodwood House.
According to the Daily Mail’s Eden Confidential column, the ‘Pointless’ host is set to tie the knot with ‘Doctor Who’ actress Ingrid Oliver, 45, at Goodwood House, the Duke of Richmond’s West Sussex estate.
Richard, 51, – who has two adult children from his previous marriage, met Ingrid when she appeared as a guest on his show, ‘House of Games’.
He previously explained: “We were doing an episode and my lovely partner Ingrid whose an actress – she’s in ‘Doctor Who’ and all sorts of things – I saw her name on the list and I’d never met her but I thought ‘Oh, I quite fancy her’ and she agreed to come on the show and I think were desperately trying not to flirt during the show.
“When it comes along and you know is real and you know its true, you feel very lucky.”
The pair announced their engagement in May and are set to walk down the aisle together in December.
However, Richard has previously insisted that the wedding will not be a star-studded affair.
He said: “We’re getting married in December, which is lovely and its going to be a very un-showbizzy wedding, just all our school friends. I can’t wait.”
And speaking about their relationship, he has also said: “I’m happy with myself, I’ve got these beautiful kids, I’ve met the woman who I’m going to be with for the rest of my life.
“That thing of competition and ambition, you soon realise that rocket fuel disappears and it’s about happiness and my kids bring me happiness and Ingrid brings me happiness.”

James Gunn wrote Guardians special in a few hours

OHMYGOSSIP — James Gunn wrote the ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special’ in just a few hours.
The holiday special features Drax (Dave Bautista) and Mantis’ (Pom Klementieff) bid to help Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) rediscover his love of the festive season, so they decide to present him with the actor, Kevin Bacon.
Gunn told The Hollywood Reporter: “The germ of the idea was just doing a holiday special. I love the holidays and I love Christmas cookies and I love getting together with my family and giving presents to each other. When I was a kid, I loved the ‘Star Wars Holiday Special’, but I also loved ‘Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer’. I still think [‘How the Grinch Stole Christmas!’] is one of the greatest cartoons of all time. So the idea of doing a holiday special with the ‘Guardians’ was both a really funny idea to me and also something I really wanted to do. And once I sat down and started trying to figure out what the story was, the Kevin Bacon idea came up very, very quickly.
“I’ll be honest, I wrote the screenplay in a few hours, so it just kind of spilled out of me. It was very easy. Everything about shooting it was easy. Everything about getting the performances out of people was easy, whereas Vol. 3 was torture in every way. And so it was kinda like going back and forth between these two things. So it was really fun and really easy, and the score was instant.”
And, although he admitted that ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3’ has been tough, he also called it a “joy”.
He said: “It’s great. It’s a big movie, and it’s so different from the special because the special is so wacky and insane. The movie is so emotional, but it’s been a real joy making it. So it’s coming along great. I still have a ton of visual effect shots I’m working on, and of course, putting the score together with John Murphy, which is gigantic. So those are the things I’ve been focusing on most, lately.”

Tom Cruise disrupting Call The Midwife filming

OHMYGOSSIP — Jenny Agutter claims Tom Cruise has been “ruining” ‘Call The Midwife’ filming.
The 69-year-old actress – who plays Sister Julienne in the popular TV drama – revealed she and her co-stars are regularly having to reshoot scenes because of the sound of the action star flying himself onto the nearby set of ‘Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part Two’, with both projects being filmed at Longcross Studios in Surrey.
Jenny told the Sunday Mirror newspaper: “Tom Cruise keeps on ruining our filming by landing his helicopter right outside where we’re shooting.”
Asked if she planned to give Tom a telling off, she added: “In my habit! Imagine. ‘Excuse me Tom, but look we’re trying to film. I don’t know about you, but just get your helicopter out of here quickly’!’”
But Jenny may want to speak to Tom to pick up some tips because, having played Councilwoman Hawley in ‘Avengers Assemble’ and ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’, she admitted she’d like to do more work in action films.
She said: “I’d love to go back to Marvel again, that would be fun. I really want to get involved with the stunts.”
The team have been working on the ‘Call The Midwife’ Christmas special and Cliff Parisi – who plays Fred Buckle – recently declared it will be “raining babies” on the 25 December episode.
He said: “There’s lots of babies. It’s raining babies at Christmas. Raining babies. So watch it on Christmas Day. Don’t forget to watch it.
“It’s going to be a very, very special episode. The series is great. I think it gets better every year.”
The show’s team recently shared a first-look at the Christmas special by posting a picture of three of the castmembers – Leonie Elliott (Lucille Anderson), Helen George (Trixie Franklin) and Megan Cusack (Nancy Corrigan) – having a snow ball fight.
They added in a Twitter caption: “Christmas Special Exclusive: Snowball fight!! Our ladies prepare for the forthcoming festive season special in traditional winter fashion!”
They followed it up by teasing in a post on Facebook which read: “We’re delighted to confirm that the results of our team’s hard work on the Christmas Special is looking FANTASTIC, and we just can’t wait to show you more – so stay tuned to this page, as we start to get ready for our brand new special, and Series 12!!!”

Charlene White feared for her job when Matt Hancock entered I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! camp

OHMYGOSSIP — Charlene White claims Matt Hancock ruined her ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ experience.
The 42-year-old broadcaster – who was the first to be evicted from camp on Friday (18.11.22) – felt she could no longer “have a laugh and a joke” when the former Health Secretary arrived as a late contestant because she feared her “impartiality” would be questioned and she’d ultimately end up losing her job.
Charlene – whose aunt died of COVID-19 – said: “I was shocked when he walked in, but also not shocked.
“Immediately, I was doing the mental arithmetic in my head, and it had stopped at that point for me just being there and having a laugh and a joke – that finished when Matt came. I have interviewed enough of the families that have lost loved ones during the pandemic. I am one of those.
“I spoke to so many families that lost dads, mums, grandads, grandparents. As soon as he walked in, I thought, ‘I’m going to be walking a tightrope here.’
“I didn’t want anyone to feel like I was being too sympathetic to Matt because that would jeopardise the job that I love and jeopardise my journalistic integrity. It would have shattered the impartiality I’ve consistently had the past 20 years.
“In my heart I felt if I didn’t represent those people who are still grieving and still hurting, if I don’t think about them and ask the questions that I want to know regarding his reasoning for going in the jungle… then I’m not doing my job.
“It went from me having a laugh to me constantly worrying about whether or not I could still do my job when I came out.”
Charlene admitted that was why she refused to sleep in the RV with Matt when he was camp leader and she was deputy but she admitted she wished she’d been more honest about her reasoning after it caused tension with the other campmates due to a lack of beds.
She said: “I was completely wrong not to have been more explicit about it. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.”
Though the ‘Loose Women’ star feels “an element of relief” to be out of the camp, she’s also “genuinely gutted” to have had her stint end so early.
She told MailOnline: “There is an element of relief now I’m out, but I loved being in there and I’m really genuinely gutted to be out because we got into a rhythm.
“I didn’t expect that immediate love, bond, and trust that we had pretty much for the very start. It feels weird to be here without them and I do really miss them.”

Quentin Tarantino doubles down on directing retirement plan

OHMYGOSSIP — Quentin Tarantino is ready to “wrap up the show”.
The ‘Reservoir Dogs’ filmmaker has confirmed he is planning to stop directing after making his 10th standalone film because he is determined to go out on a high.
He said: “I’ve been doing it for a long time; I’ve been doing it for 30 years. And it’s time to wrap up the show. I’m an entertainer. I want to leave you wanting more.”
The 59-year-old filmmaker – whose 2007 film ‘Death Proof’ is discounted from his final total because it was half of the ‘Grindhouse’ double feature alongside Robert Rodriguez’s ‘Planet Terror’ – insisted he doesn’t “want to work to diminishing returns”.
He told CNN’s Chris Wallace: “I don’t want to become this old man who’s out of touch when, already, I’m feeling a bit like an old man out of touch when it comes to the current movies that are out right now.
“And that’s what happens — that’s exactly what happens.”
But fans may have a long wait to watch Tarantino’s last work because he has no idea what the film will be and insisted he isn’t “in a giant hurry” to make it due to the dominance of streaming services.
Asked if he knows what his “10th and last film is going to be”, he replied: “No, I don’t, at all, ’cause I’m also not in a giant hurry to make my last movie.
“Right now, I don’t even know what a movie is — is that something that plays on Netflix? Is that something that plays on Amazon and people watch it on their couch with their wife or their husband? Is that a movie?
“‘Cause my last movie opened up in 3,000 theaters and played all over the world for a couple of months.”
Tarantino, whose most recent work was the critically-acclaimed ‘Once Upon a Time in Hollywood’, mused last year about calling it a day while he was still at the top and admitted at the time he wasn’t even bothered about making a 10th film.
He said: “Most directors’ last films are f****** lousy. Maybe I should not make another movie because I could be really happy with dropping the mic.”

Dominique Thorne wanted her Marvel character to ‘look different than other geniuses

OHMYGOSSIP — Dominique Thorne wanted her Marvel character to ‘”look different” than other geniuses.
The 24-year-old actress stars as Riri Williams/Ironheart in the superhero movie ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’ and explained that she wanted to make sure her character was visually different from what others may expect as she made her entered the Marvel universe.
She said: ” I think for me, I don’t know if it’s a bit of a secret, but I think talking about it this go-round has definitely been the first time I’ve really shared it, is that it was important for me that Riri Williams, who we all know is a super genius, and who we all know does this incredible build by making her Ironheart suit, it was important for me that she was outside of what folks might expect when they think about what a “genius” looks like, or what someone who goes to MIT sounds, or just how they carry themselves in that space. ”
The ‘Judas and the Black Messiah’ star went on to add that she was “thankful” that her vision was supported by the creatives of the movie and she was able to “play around” with the character as she developed the role.
She told Collider: “Thankfully, it was a choice and a hope supported by the words that Ryan Coogler and Joe Robert Cole had down on paper and also, of course, the character that Eve Ewing had established. I’m very glad that I was given a character that could support that hope of mine, but also in me figuring out how I embody Riri is wanting to figure out how I could play around in different moments, and maybe do something differently than whatever my first thought might be.”

Gary Lucy found Celebs Go Dating hard

OHMYGOSSIP — Gary Lucy found ‘Celebs Go Dating’ “really difficult”.
The former ‘Hollyoaks’ actor – who found love on the show with fellow contestant Laura Anderson – admitted he doesn’t see his future in reality television after taking part in the dating series because he found it difficult having to open up about himself on camera.
He said: “I’ve done ‘Dancing On Ice’ but this is completely different.
“This felt like I was really putting myself out there.
“I did a deep dive in. The agents really probed me and I got upset.
“It was a really difficult experience but a worthwhile one.
“Reality TV is hard. I couldn’t do this for a living.”
The 40-year-old actor – who split from wife Natasha in 2018 – had rejected multiple approaches to go on the show but eventually gave in as he is ready to settle down again.
He told the Daily Star Sunday newspaper: “They have asked me for the last three years and I’ve always said no.
“But I am 40 now and the reality is it is really hard to meet new people.
“I am career driven but what is the point of a nice career if you don’t have someone to share your life experiences with?
“I deserve more than just working all the time.
“I want to go to nice restaurants, nice holidays, have roast dinner on a Sunday, and enjoy cuddles on the couch.
“I need that and I miss it so much.”
Gary admitted he hadn’t done much dating in the past, despite his womanising reputation in his 20s.
He said: “I’ve been painted out to be a womaniser but I have only had three or four proper relationships in my life.
“One of which was obviously the mother of my kids.
“Yes, I did sleep around a lot when I was younger but I don’t have much experience when it comes to dating.
“It was either hook-ups while clubbing or long-term relationships.
“I was made out to be a lothario. The truth is I then spent a lot of my life trying to live up to that image.
“I used to throw phones away or get new numbers all the time because I was avoiding girls.
“I know it is pathetic. I was childish but all I have ever wanted is a life long partner to settle down with and build a nice life with.
“I did what I did when I was younger but it was never really me.”

Fleur East: Strictly Come Dancing has boosted my marriage

OHMYGOSSIP — Fleur East claims ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ has “spiced up” her marriage.
The 35-year-old singer has been with Marcel Badiane-Robin for 12 years but she admitted her glamorous costumes and sexy dance routines have “reignited” the spark in their relationship and the fashion designer is constantly urging her to be “sexier” in her performances.
She told the Sunday Mirror newspaper: “It was like we’d got married again after the Argentine Tango!
“If you want the spark to be reignited in your marriage, then do Strictly. When has he ever seen me in a new look every week, moving my hips like that? When do you ever get to do that for your partner? It’s like I’m performing for him every Saturday night.
“He’s the one telling me to be sexier and more passionate.
“Doing Strictly has spiced up our marriage, for sure. It’s like our second honeymoon. We’re both loving it.”
And Marcel has struck up a firm friendship with Fleur’s dance partner Vito Coppola.
She laughed: “The other day, me and my husband got into bed and Marcel was next to me, texting and laughing. He was like, ‘Vito is just so funny!’
“Marcel and my sister Keshia are with me at all the rehearsals so we have become a bit of a four.”
‘Strictly’ has previously been accused of lacking diversity but could be looking at its first final with non-white competitors this year thanks to the popularity of the ‘Sax’ singer and fellow contestants Hamza Yassin and Tyler West, much to the delight of the trio.
Fleur said: “I think this series has just been so incredible for representation. To see Afrobeats on ‘Strictly’… my heart! I was so proud.
“I bumped into Hamza and said, ‘This is big. This is big, right?’ And he was like, ‘I know!’
“Even this week, with us doing our routine to Destiny’s Child, it’s so different for Strictly.
“The show has been on for 20 years but the fact it is still breaking the mould and having moments like that is so exciting. It’s why I wanted to do it.”

Ryan Reynolds wrote a Deadpool Christmas film

OHMYGOSSIP — Ryan Reynolds hopes to make a ‘Deadpool’ Christmas movie “one day”.
The 46-year-old actor revealed he had worked on a festive saga about the Merc with a Mouth but the project got shelved after Disney bought 20th Century Fox, though Ryan hasn’t given up hope of the project eventually being filmed at some point in the future.
He told The Big Issue magazine: “Four years ago, [‘Deadpool’ co-writers] Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick and I wrote a Christmas movie starring Deadpool. But it got lost in the shuffle of Disney acquiring Fox and it never got made.
“Maybe one day we’ll get to make that movie. It’s not a musical, but it’s a full Deadpool Christmas movie. So one day.”
Ryan will next be working on ‘Deadpool 3’, and was delighted to have Hugh Jackman agree to return as Wolverine for the film after asking him “for six straight years”.
He added: “It was ultimately Hugh that said, ‘I think I am ready to come back.’
“All we had to do was sell it to (producer) Kevin Feige, which didn’t take long, and the next thing you knew here we are.”
Filming for ‘Deadpool 3’ has not yet started yet but Shawn Levy is set to direct the sequel while Rhett and Paul are to write the script.
Rhett previously told fans not to “worry” about the fear the third instalment could be Disney-fied after Disney bought its producer 20th Century Fox.
But he has added: “Now when it comes to a particular joke, if we cross a line, maybe we’ll hear at some point, ‘Maybe not that joke.’
“But I think they’ve been incredibly supportive of what we’re doing, because obviously we were doing it separate from them for a long time, and I think they’ve seen the success and they’ve had their own even greater success. So hopefully it’ll be a marriage made in heaven. But we’ve definitely got their support, and that’s a great thing to feel.”

Dustin Milligan ‘always dreamed’ of shooting a movie in London

OHMYGOSSIP — Dustin Milligan “always dreamed” of shooting a movie in London.
The Canadian-born actor, 37, had not spent much time in the English capital but had always wanted to fly across the pond to work and eventually got the chance when he was cast in new comedy ‘The People We Hate at the Wedding’.
He said: “I’d never shot in London before and I always dreamed of it. I love London and hadn’t spent a lot of time there so when I say I loved it I guess I love the idea of it. But having the opportunity to shoot there and I was there for over a month – it was really incredible. I loved the city, I loved the people and getting to go there and visit while working is the best because I serve my purpose but then I got to go off and explore. I did a lot of walking, I walked over that city. It was a lot of laughs.”
However the former ‘90210’ star – who features in the new comedy about a pair of sisters who reluctantly agree to attend the wedding of their estranged, wealthy half-sister in the English countryside – went on to joke that he had the “worst pizza” ever in London but ordered it at in the early hours of the morning.
He told HeyUGuys: “I ate at a couple of places but I can’t really remember. I had some of the worst takeaway pizza of my life in London, I’m just gonna be honest. But then I did order it at 2:30am, so I don’t know what I was expecting!”
‘The People We Hate at the Wedding’ – which also stars Kristen Bell, Allison Janney, and Ben Platt – is available to stream now on Prime Video.

Matt Hancock’s girlfriend ‘missing him’ amid I’m A Celebrity stint but ‘impressed’ with his trials

OHMYGOSSIP — Matt Hancock’s girlfriend says it would be “difficult not to be impressed” watching him take part in Bushtucker Trials on ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’.
The former Health Secretary was suspended by the Conservative Party for signing up for the ITV show, but his girlfriend and former aide Gina Coladangelo – who he was caught kissing during the coronavirus pandemic, breaking his own social distancing guidance – insisted the MP has “done really well” in his trials, and admitted she has been “missing him” during his jungle stint.
She told the Daily Mirror newspaper: “I have been watching the show, it would be difficult not to be impressed he has done really well.
“He is made of tough stuff, it is hard not to be impressed. But it is good they are sharing them around now.”
Asked whether being apart has been difficult, she said: “Obviously yes, I have missed him.”
Gina – who touched down in Brisbane on Wednesday (16.11.22) – also reflected on the mood in camp, adding: “They all seem to be getting on OK.”
Matt later quit as Health Secretary after he was caught cheating on his wife with Gina and going against his social distancing guidance.
During his time in camp, the MP has been selected for numerous Bushtucker Trials, but the public gave him a rest for the last two.
Three campmates need to volunteer for tonight’s (17.11.22) trial, and at the end of last night’s show (16.11.22) Matt, Mike Tindall and Owen Warner could all be heard offering their services.
Earlier this week, a banner was flown above the ‘I’m A Celebrity’ camp urging Matt to “get out” of the jungle.
Campaign group 38 Degrees claimed responsibility for the message, which read “Covid Bereaved say get out of here”, which was on behalf of campaign group Covid-19 Bereaved Families for Justice UK.
Last week on the show, Matt insisted he is looking for “forgiveness”.
He said: “What I’m really looking for is a bit of forgiveness. That’s what I’m really looking for. We all make mistakes. I made a pretty big one.”

Gabrielle Union teases LGBTQ wedding comedy with Eva Longoria

OHMYGOSSIP — Gabrielle Union and Eva Longoria are set to star in an LGBTQ+ wedding comedy.
The two actresses are working on a new feature film for Amazon Studios which will see them play dueling soon-to-be mothers-in-law trying to take over their sons’ wedding planning.
Speaking to Variety, Union said: “Eva and I try to take over their wedding planning and make it the wedding of our dreams versus theirs.”
The untitled comedy is being written by Ricardo Gamboa, while Macro Film Studios will produce alongside Longoria’s UnbeliEVAble Entertainment and Union’s I’ll Have Another Productions.
Meanwhile, Union has also given an update on road trip movie ‘Get To Be’, which is being directed by Billy Porter and follows three Rhode Island high school students travelling to New York City for their first Pride Parade.
The actress – who is serving as producer on the movie – was inspired to make the film by her and Dwyane Wade’s daughter asking to go to Miami Pride when she was 10.
On the film, she said: “It’s a group of diverse kids. One is a chubby Asian, another is a Black nonbinary — I don’t want to say a diva or divo, but an extravagant, dynamic larger personality — and then there’s a white bisexual boy.
“I believe that it is important to have real representation so we’re not play-acting at what it is to be queer,” she says.
Union is also set to star in upcoming Disney animated film ‘Strange World’, which sees her and Jake Gyllenhaal voice the parents of a gay teen called Ethan Clade (Jaboukie Young-White), and she will play the mother of a young gay man Ellis French (Jeremy Pope) in ‘The Inspection’.
In the latter, Ellis joins the Marines after his mother abandons him and he’s forced to live on the streets.
She has previously been vocal about the importance of having more diverse LGBTQ+ stories shown on screen.
She said: “A lot of folks are trying to erase whole chunks of our population and trying to reimagine reality without LGBTQIA folks.
“The reality is, we exist everywhere, every part of the globe.”
